Once on the verge of deepest black... <br />The very early morn 'tis nigh- <br />Yet hidden in the darkness deep... <br />Are all of their nefarious lies; <br /> <br />Cabals of the most decadent form... <br />Are spurned by the winds of change... <br />Lace slippers of the One In Charge... <br />Now lie in their shadows most strange; <br /> <br />Their footprints oft' belie... <br />The stealth of vagrants creep... <br />Warning to the innocents...! ! ! <br />Once made victims while asleep; <br /> <br />For the Spirit of Our Loving God- <br />Shines a light most brillant bright- <br />And brings to view-all that 'tis new...! ! ! <br />Into our now clear made sight; <br /> <br />For He gave us our ears to hear...! ! <br />And our eyes to clearly see...! ! ! <br />To protect us all from Villains Small...! ! ! <br />Who conspire to taint and take most egregiously;<br /><br />Theodora (Theo) Onken<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/into-gods-favor/
