 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

geishacountrypoetpoetry759
Life is a dream


I have been trapped by desire
encircled with fire
known passion beyond what man can dream
I've done battle with demons
and left each one feeling
this battle be victorious for me.

For I refuse to surrender
this life of true splendour
to the darkness that shadows my day
the sun high and shining…
the rainfall enjoying
the songbirds that fly by… my way.

Each day is a treasure
whether toil or pleasure
we are man and we reign supreme
why spend our time fighting?
when life's so inviting…
to live out our life as this dream.
