Justice bold, the Soul bares word… ~a poem by Linda Willows


Photograph by Vladislav Antonov

No word or act must hide or reap
that speaks to rob of  justice bold,
Or strain the pour of  deep soul vein,
to marks such pain…as falsely told.
Call the word to dare it now
Soul breathes first to toll the bough.

Small wrongs become the severed vasts
that slow devour that trust must last.
And in its place comes cloaked remains;
the loss of trust, the deep red stains.

Stand back from dare to advantage here,
A cloaked ext-ere bears more to revere…
For silence grows to bare Souls Word,
and motions forth the pour of Right
upon all set to doubts Its might.

  1. No word or act must hide or reap
    that speaks to rob of justice bold,
    Or strain the pour of deep soul vein,
    to marks such pain…as falsely told.
    Call the word to dare it now

  2. I hear these words and see your face,
    Yes and yes again ! No stain or trace!
    This time here can be no disgrace
    It’s so important for the huan race.

    That powers of darkness should decline,
    An the power of love should reign sublime!

  3. Very powerful Linda ~ this one is a strong message “call the world to dare it now” ~ a call for goodness – justice ~ peace in my view… Such an eloquent poem – passionate and universal. Much Love dear Linda ~ x R

  4. Yes, universal and on personal level as well…we must learn to call out, to be fearless…to recognize that we will pay the price, whatever…for goodness and justice to be the highest outcome. We cannot “lie down” softly, in complacency, or “spiritual peace” if it means that we become deaf or blind to a higher calling which whispers Truth, or Dares a challenge to the Given “treatment of a person, issue, or circumstance…near or far, and all that this implies”.
