Wake Me Up

 

 

Wake me up

When peace is near

When petty differences

Have all disappeared

Wake me up

When complaints aren't valid

When the owner of faith

Has cast its ballot

Wake me up

When positive is king

When negative is beheaded

And all the land doth sing

Wake me up

When love is cherished

When evil gave up

And hate finally perished

Wake me up

When that new day begins

For today passed away

When it let yesterday in.

Amazing!! Truly amazing!! Brilliant!! Superb!! Fantastic!! Terrific!! AWESOME!!
Whoa! I'm out of appreciative words.....lol
This was, as I already said, amazing. Capturing that perfect yesterday which we all long for in such a vivid and descriptive way, I'm bound by some spell.
This can be a magical chant to go back to those heavenly times.
The rhyme scheme is my fav, as always....
You're a great poet/ writer/ friend/ person/ umm....human?!?!?

This is definitely going into my favorites. At first I didn't really like the rhyme but by the end it fit the poem. It's amazing how much attitude toward the world can change ones perspective. Great write.

This is so beautiful...again, I am about to cry at the end because I "so" get this...

"When love is cherished" yet "When it let yesterday in."

What I would give to live in this world.

Wonderful!

Dani this writing has a way of speaking to the heart with ethereal effects in way of concentration and one can see the innocence in enlightenment.. your words have a true physical effect in way of being able to feel the emotions in your words .. also the meaning itself .. defines what it is to hav achieved positive goal
in mind .. there is a trmendous ammount of creativity combined with passion in way of being able to
take the reader to another plane of thought.. you capture past- present and future aspect in your words.
i completely enjoyed reading your brilliant way with flow- wording and projection..stunning
