Rondeau: It's time to Live

©02-15-2022, Olan L. Smith


It's time to live, so find your inner fight

From beings who are true, an angels' might.

Imbue your heart with tears, with passion give;

It's time to fold our passions plans to live.

We deal then die, an early dawn's new flight


Upon a hill we find our power's flight,

Immoral waves of clout will cause a blight,

While children's hearts will deem a realm festive,

It's time to live.


The fires, the passion of life are ablative,

Defined in hearts and beat inquisitive

In search for beings divine, the sprite,

Supernatural, powerful, forthright

Energy enlightens the darkest night,

It's time to live!
