Shed Light Into Life

Surround yourself

With the lightness of

Monarch butterflies circling

The open red fox gloves

 

Long eared, spotted puppies

Running through

The lavender fields

Chasing their tails

 

Cast the darkness out

Banish those red

Demons hiding behind

Hedges waiting to hex

Whoever passes by

 

The black train of death

Slowly winds its way

Through the tunnels and trails

Bringing passengers

To their eternal doom

 

Exorcise all negativity

From your life

Throughout your day

Light attracts lightness

Dark attracts darkness

 

Buzzing bumble bees float by

Curling sweet jasmine of spring

Versus gnarly twisted trees

Standing over

Covered black caskets

Opening in the

Middle of the night

 

Banish those bats

Back into the pits of hell

Releasing white billowing

Angels of lightness

To circle your being

Keeping all darkness out

Very expressive and very beautiful, and the image looks like it was inspired by "Three Worlds" of M.C. Escher.

[Patches I'm not so new..]

I enjoyed this It struck me as odd though than maybe not so odd but it kinda follows the pattern of the ten comandments the ten has two positive commandments out of ten all others forbid something. This has two positive strophes and the rest are in the negitive vein some with a line or two of positive vibes this isn't wrong or bad I was just compairing the two. this is very good subject you have tackled and you have done a fantastic job!
