honest eyes bespeak the soul’s cry as desp’rate discord denies its pain as longing lingers late and weakness waits in the green room of lucidity so looms the truth, so shines its clarity and that which is seen is clearly seen pristine, perceptible, perceived no longer adorned in apathy no longer wearing the wardrobe of the weary impending legitimacy, lending its soul to be seen by honest eyes to be seen by honest eyes |

Wise Soul, methinks ye speaketh honest words and "see with honest eyes". "so looms the truth, so shines its clarity and that which is seen is clearly seen pristine, perceptible, perceived no longer adorned in apathy no longer wearing the wardrobe of the weary" ~ "apathy" can be somewhat pathetic. Apathetic, ye be not!  Love your poetry and your spirit! Linda  |

steavenr Your words flow in harmony with strong conviction. I too, loved these lines "so looms the truth, so shines its clarity and that which is seen is clearly seen pristine, perceptible, perceived" Honesty is so often underrated and you speak it's value truly. Pleasure to read. sharyn |
