Who
will sow
the seeds
of gentleness
into

These fields
of woe
and unacceptance
tolerance
unknown

To raise
the wheat
of tenderness
amidsts acres
of grief

Twixt weeds
of insincerity
toil thy fields
with loves eyes
only

for they
alone
define all
that is
eternity


For the moment swallows all things blinding our eyes to Heaven.

===================

very cool...
the format and presentation added to this ones pleasures...
great use of theme and imagery.
well done

Im searchin for my warrior
walkin the tracks of time
this struggle to seek forgiveness
like chains and shackles...these ghosts of mine

I don't know who will sow them but I know they are out there and they will be planted if you want to reap the benefits of gentleness and love.........and......

                                         "for they
                                           alone
                                          define all
                                           that is
                                          eternity."

I like the whole poem but I especially love that line

All gardens need tending to... really enjoeyd the poem,  

"difference between love and comfortis that comfort's more reliable and true
Brutal and mocking but always therea crutch for enmity's saddest glare"

Who
will sow
the seeds
of gentleness


I so love that stanza, it's a question that begs a response, not in word, but in deed.
