To gold, men’s hearts to bind,
But true life, in that they shall
not find,
Kings and lords,
Fight with glistening swords,
But life, true life, upon them
shall never be shined.
A golden key will unlock a life,
Set him free from worldly strife,
A golden key not of man’s gold,
For that can be bought and sold,
For this golden key is far beyond
value money or fife.
Doubt not that this is the right,
Come into the light,
Darkness will seek,
Its flaming wreak,
But be strong, see what is true through
new sight.
I hope you enjoyed them, later I'll post the story that they are in, once it is edited and all of that.

I like the poems, but are they meant as songs? I was just wondering because the last lines never seem to have a rime and that seems to happen in songs a lot.
ReplyDeleteStill, I liked the poems.
Thanks!
DeleteActually, with limericks, they do rhyme. A limerick has lines 1 and 2 rhyme, then 3 and 4 rhyme, but then the 5th line rhymes with lines 1 and 2, so it does rhyme, it's just a little more complicated way. If you read them again, that's how I did it. :)
Thanks again for reading!
