Rising

Kyrielle Sonnet Form poem inspired by the recent events spreading across the Middle East

Freedom, a spark, flash defiance
The cry for an end to tyrants
Carried by the human spirit
Charged by peace, rulers soon fear it

Shackles of fear are now unbound
The voices of many resound
No more the despots to permit
Charged by peace, rulers soon fear it

Regimes now topple, old ways dead
Now the souls of all will be fed
The movement started, the fire lit
Charged by peace, rulers soon fear it

Freedom, a spark, flash defiance
Charged by peace, rulers soon fear it
