lines.? I had a similar question about rhythm (which received 16 answers) to a more elaborate poem I wrote about roses,but someone decided to report it as a violation?!?!?...Smh, so I didn't get to see all the answers...such a shame, since a number of good people gave helpful, thoughtful answers,which I appreciated very much.
Once Upon A Time
The oldest story
Repeatedly told
God was all in all
From great to small
Without and within
Light and dark, a ball
Good and evil twins
All that is or was
Or ever will be
Each from God was born
The void and the form
The impossible
And the possible
Indivisible
The one was many
Exploding in space
All the energy
Eternal in time
Was moving in place
Life and death the same
Just changing from here
To there, now and then
From the was or is
Or ever will be
Nothing is separate
What was, has been done
Can not be undone
God’s omnipresent
As clouds in heaven
Raining on the ground
Sum of everyone
Everywhere around
People come and go
What is their purpose?
They all want to know
How do we fit in?
Where shall we begin?
Just LOVE one another
That will be enough.
Will it ever end?
That question is tough!
That is a secret
Only God knows, my friend
