Ray's Up (contest: Thoughts-of-Solomon) 1st draft
Our Sun's Gone.
But tomorrow:
Ray's Up
from darkness;
groveling
among various degrees of dried-up clay
content to stray from morality
which nourishes our soil
not to spoil under heat transforming
our souls into silver or gold.
In jealousies,
fits of anger,
rivalries
to eventually
eternally
decay
if
among the gloomiest of the gloom
to interact; to lie down, then stay?
No...
Ray's Up
in praise
with birds chirping
as dawns each new day.
Never to replay tragedies.
Today
begins.
Then again
another today.
To erase. To learn.
Commence
another stage.
Engage.
Ray's Up!
Glorious.
With its radiance spinning global life
despite many drowning in a sea of rising tears
from blood spilled
due to international wars
based on hatred and strife.
Its orbit billions of moons ago spun?
Generations to forever pray; play.
Don't delay in raising voices in song.
In sweet harmony.
Joined together in a brotherhood.
Grazing. Sheep belonging.
Forgiving.
In love strong.
Until death and gravedom
cease to win.
Until a Kingdom Comes
to right all wrongs.
