The light of day

by master of shadow   Feb 27, 2006


The clouds part and the sun shall shine,
Heat beets down,
Melts these icy bars,
A golden glow is soon to appear,
To banish the shadows,
Shine light on existence,
Chase away the evils,
And remove all pain,
Fill all emptiness,
And destroy the void,
Reach out,
Though the barrier,
Allow feeling to return,
Warmth and light to enter,
To finally get though,
End the cold winter,
The ice and storms,
Let cold return to life,
Not just the blues and grays,
But an entire spectrum,
Like nothing ever seen before,
The darkness begins to disperse,
What was once a solid wall,
An impermeable fortress,
Is now but a weak veil,
And is slowly ebbing away,
Where there was once darkness light reigns,
Where cold emptiness, warmth,
As the darkness is beaten back,
Chased away,
Finally leaves.

    Wow, this was a masterpiece. I enjoyed the way you described
    The battle between light and darkness. I could never write such
    A wonderfully written poem. This poem reminds the reader that
    Even after the darkest hours, the sun shall rise again. It somehow
    Shows our lives. Sun rises, sun sets, sun rises and again it sets.
    And when we remind this to ourselves, then we will never lose
    Our hopes cuz they’re just a part of life and without darkness,
    Light won’t mean anything anymore. I found this poem really
    Soothing and impressive. Thanks for sharing it.
    May you be happy at both sunset and dawn,

    This is a rather inspirational piece, I'd put it in the Life section, but still, it's just my opinion. =) Enjoyed this very much, makes me gloomy day seems a lot brighter now. Thanks for sharing.

    I enjoyed this poem, and I have some positive points and suggestions for improvement.
    I liked the images you portrayed in this write, and your word choice did strengthen the poem. I liked the overall subject, I found it very refreshing, and original.
    On the second line it should be "beats."
    The poem, although it has frequent use of commas still has a flow weakness. Maybe adding full stops in there too could break up the lengthy poem that at the moment reads as one long "sentance."
    As for the question about which category this belong in, I think it is fine here. Or you could always consider the nature section because of your frequent use of nature images. Even the life category would work because there is a sense of human emotion and evil vs good in the poem.
    Good work, keep writing.
