Wisdom Found, Upon A Stone Once Cast
Night creeps in, shadows do their dark deeds
So much favors that blackness in night
Nourish the evil hiding in its darkened seeds
too often no gentle mercies and no respite
Where once lay love in a true heart
darkness may slide in to dance and play
A small mischief for a sneaky start
saving the very worst for a future day
Read deeper into this poem and behold
wisdom found, upon a stone once cast
Youth once wasted, regrets when too old
tis small relief, cherishing loves of the past
Night creeps in, shadows do their dark deeds
If truly lost, upon your soul evil feeds

When All Your Dreams Are But Dust
When deep regret meets the day
rainbows seed no more awe
As one grabbed, thoughtless to pay
no seeing through a crystal ball
Life and love, mysteries to be found
colors often dimmed by greed
Time the obstacle, no way around
fruits harvested from darkest seed
Fate in this world, mercy rarely given
knobs on doors with no keys
Life brings bad, when its blind liven'
no regrowing hollow burnt trees
When all your dreams are but dust
You are brittle iron covered in red rust
R.J. Lindley,
1979
