Poem -
CORRUPTIVE SOULS
Out of created darknessÂ
A spark of light did shineÂ
Revealing the blindnessÂ
Of souls defiledÂ
Unable to reachÂ
Their heavenly goalsÂ
Cursed by the darknessÂ
Were their condemned soulsÂ
But the light saw their awful plightÂ
Stumbling in their minds madness
In forever nightÂ
Love and compassionÂ
Moved the lightÂ
And with a deliberate thrustÂ
Dispelled the nightÂ
Liberated by the lightÂ
Their souls became aliveÂ
Knowing good and evilÂ
With a choice to survive
But the darkness was embeddedÂ
In their depraved mindsÂ
And with lips of serpentsÂ
They cursed the light.

More than nicely penned and all the dark imagery cast through-out.
And a cruel chance game of hope offered then hope rejected absolutely by too far gone entrenched and forever tainted/cursed souls.
Great imaginative write and morality message and enjoyed from beginning to end.
Full deserved honours and respectfully given.
Thank you for sharing Wilford and I wish you well.

Hi Shaun..
I thought this one was long gone and forgotten.. lol
But you my friend.. has resurreresurrectedÂ
it from the poetry grave.. as it should.
Those that love the light.. comes to the light. And their lives are transformed.Â
Thanks so much for taking the time.
I will do the same.Â
Hey Wilford and thank you and I have the time in the next few days away from work to make a bee-line for members I've been meaning to look at, but time would not allow or to be honest just too jaded after a demanding day.
So here I am and your poetry flows and beats not well, but MUCH more than well.
Great writing and imagery that projects and stands out.
And back tomorrow to read many more and full respect to your good self Wilford.
Take care and all the best to you and the loved ones around you. Â
