Soul-maker

Author: cafetwo2010

Like red drops of fire
this pain and suffering/
Sorrow upon sorrow measured
to me with the passing of
every sun/
Yet who would know courage
without fear/
Peace without chaos/
Character without persistance/
Old age without youth/
Love without hate/
Behold!
Soul-maker~

When you seek let it show
Forms Undiscerned can
Cost the peace you sought
Yet discourage not when the times
When you will know
The truth wI'll shine

For my friend

Correction please

When the time comes
The truth will shine
You as the seeker of soul
Or the found one

Take care. Jim

Your friend

I fully concur with the previous comments. Sorry, I have missed it, like many other good poems here. But, as the saying goes, it is never too late to say what I might have said. Thank you, Cafe for the wisdom contained in this poem!
