darkness filters into light
sunrise brings no vision
diamonds are charred and burnt
sallow memory weeps
yet for sorrow there is song
the dove croons its mourning
the mockingbird cheers dawn
but man is exiled from nature
the poet sees the contrast
he shines a light on fears
to bring a jeweled crown
and bury the sins of mankind
the sun rises over the sea
and its lyric is like a prayer
that men embrace the earth
that we embrace our kingdom
As long as the sun rises there is always hope that darkness will never prevail. What a nice poem!

I guess it is part of our job as poets to take note of the despair but also celebrate hope. Thank you for the praise.
