Treachery’s Ultimatum

Treachery, can aptly masquerade as

Loyal confidants attending your courts…

Thus vigilance attend to most earnestly.

Lest the schemes of deceit surprise present

At arm’s length, or in close proximity

Seeking to strike with a lethal blow,

Determined wholeheartedly to destroy.

For treachery knoweth no measure of peace

Save it supplant tranquility with ruination.

Therefore, cloak yourself in the armour of

Unwavering faith, stalwart of integrity, and

With wisdom, most cautiously guard thy ways.

Sorrow Not Beyond Sorrow’s Due

When situation occasions agony
And sorrow’s pain tends to linger on.
Forbear prolonged lamentation,
Lest in triumph it thrives and flourishes
Overcoming all avenues for joy within.
For the sorrow nurtured and kept alive
Forever as a companion tends to stays beside…
While that disposed of, in time, dissipates
Sparing more tears and anguish pronounced.
Nurture misery not, grief ‘s plan neither abet.
Truly, it is the soul, that despairs, that must
For its benefit, to hope eternal cling…
And the heart that in distressed anguish weeps
For its own plain relief, gladness must seek.
Thus within life’s brevity meant for all things
Extend not sorrow if it adventures near, that
It may not find habitation beyond its due…
But in earnest, room make for emotions pleasant,
Because ’tis when sorrow is bid farewell
That happiness, can fulfill its means and purpose
In joy’s delight and comfort, blossom free
Residing indeed amid inner solace and peace.
