SHADE....A Poetry Of Struggle Between Humans And The Spirits by lordthunderbolt(m): 7:48am On Oct 11, 2014
Shade shade daughter of the sage

Loved an enchanter of the spirit

An apprentice to the gods

And she the spirits trailed

 

Beautiful spirit 'they' wailed

She ran to Dele!

I learn from the gods themselves!

And none shares my bride!!

 

Who can stand the king of spirits

Not a mortal

Neither an apprentice

Who was a perfect judge

 

The gods don't protect their apprentice

neither can the spirit  marry

And none can touch our beautiful shade

Neither will the spirit accept Dele

 

Life twirled in shadows

Dele grew old

Shade younger and more beautiful

The regrets of the spirit hung

 

The gods...The spirits

held both ends of the coin

And a brave Dele opted for peace

To hold his fading walking stick


neither could die

Neither could have Shade

And the greatest of guilt of the apprentice

The gods never punish spirits!

 

Or do they
