Sights of Solace

Sights of Solace



Due to some that define
life as a weapon of vengeance,
parts of our beautiful earth
turned to strategic places where

evil dwells flourishing on minds
of those robbing us of peace, of joy.
I try to find the meaning of existence
by looking at those gems of luminescence,
the silent source of soothing solace

shining patiently on the vast high welkin.
