Darkness Poem by Dan Jordan
Darkness
Darkness, darkness is most dreary and glum compared
To light, for light is the joy of spring and the warmth of a
Beautiful summer, but darkness is a spring which is bleak
And dead with life, followed by a summer which is as cold
As a bloody knife.
Light is the joy of receiving presents upon Christmas day,
But darkness is the horror-stricken sight of someone dying in vain.
Indeed, light is the happiness and lovingness of life, but darkness is The Painstaking experience of arguing with your beloved wife.
I tell you my friend, darkness is most dreary and glum
Compared to light, for light is the sweet full sound of
Sparrows twittering upon a warm summers day, but darkness
Lurks about the dead of night; about the eerie shadows
Upon a bitter cold winters night.

Light is the joy of receiving presents upon Christmas day, But darkness is the horror-stricken sight of someone dying in vain. I love those lines. good job with the contrast. greatness here. well done. *Crystal Midnight*
A really great read. The way you compare the light verses the dark evokes a sense of the duality in all of us. Though for some of us one is always closer to the surface than the other. And, lately for myself the darkness is coming up for air more often than not. I could really connect with this poem. I am not you but it seems to me that you are showing the reader that even if we live in the dark at this moment the light is always ahead of us. Keep it up.
Since this poem was titled 'Darkness' instead of 'Darkness vs Light' or 'Dark and Light, etc. may the reader assume that in fact you dwell among the darkness? Perhaps this was just the mood at the time you wrote this? Hugs, Dee
well penned.....pleasant to read....much true and yu pictured light and darkness in a brilliant way...regards sebastine..........
