Between The Lines Poem by Alison Mujati

As this generation stand dumbfounded
All wondering how time left it grounded
Within eyes sorrow bleeds
From wells of falling rain
Filled with grief for overflows
The reaction formulates tiny streams.

Life flatters to deceive
Everything appearing deceivingly
Lesson learned
Every glittering dust particle isn't gold

A lioness in sheepskin
Forever it shall remain a predator never akin.
Trust the flock at your peril.

The drive led us to the pool
We all expected a beautiful scenery
Did we not initially witness its beauty
Who imagined the mystery of mermaids
It all came as a surprise.

Arise to lovely moments
Swim to the beauty offered on a platter
Like kings and queens, we dine high table
Never forget the end of the night
A lot happens in a twinkle of an eye

Between evil and good, goodness shows
Pessimism blinkers us to horror shows
As lightning strike folks wished to foretell
It's regret but read between those lines
