A Poem

  
 Defeat of Chaos-by me
 
 
 There once was a time
 Before lyric and rhyme
 When chaos existed unchecked
 
 
 Then low and behold
 Did order unfold
 Repaired what was brutally wrecked
 
 
 This order would seem
 Was result of a dream
 Of a world that was running a muck
 
 
 Still labored it did
 That order would bid
 Farewell to the weed it would pluck
 
 
 At first, miserably failed
 All strategies paled
 To havoc that Chaos would wreak
 
 
 And order laid low
 It's countenance bow
 It's future, beholden, was bleak
 
 
 Its effort was vain
 Seemed chaos would reign
 Enslaving the world to its doom
 
 
 And chained to its dread
 The world downward sped
 More dismal its future would loom
 
 
 Reduced to a dream
 It's efforts did seem
 A paltry and futile attempt
 
 
 With fears of demise
 The Chaos would rise
 Holding rules of order contempt
 
 
 The world almost chose
 Surrender repose
 Defeat in the hands of its foe
 
 
 But new to the scene
 To join with the team
 An ally to aid in the fight
 
 
 The dream fast renewed
 And hope fast ensued
 From darkness a faint trace of light
 
 
 What Chaos had won
 Would soon be undone
 As Chaos had now met its match
 
 
 The Chaos would stay
 Being kept fast at bay
 The flames of resistance did catch
 
 
 Its strength quickly left
 Its countenance bereft
 Reduced to no consequence seem
 
 
 The world in full light
 Had discovered what might
 Be possessed as a new found regime
 
 
 Most humbled it was
 As one humbly does
 Give credit where credit is do
 
 
 What came to the fight
 To lend hope and light
 Is found in a friend such as you
 
 
 What brought great success
 From the hopeless duress
 Could not from the world ever find
 
 
 The strategy clear
 When Chaos is near
 Is peace first engaged in the mind
 
 
 But peace in the mind
 Can't come from one blind
 Who gives to the Chaos his life
 
 
 He neither wants peace
 Nor seeks its release
 His heart hard as Chaos was rife
 
 
 Not left to despair
 Even his life repair
 By occasion that peace finds by chance
 
 
 When Chaos he finds
 How deadly chords, Chaos binds
 He gives peace a hopeful first glance
 
 
 Yet peace is remiss
 Requires assist
 To mend all that Chaos had broke
 
 
 True peace is not full
 Till love has its rule
 Together appeal must invoke
 
 
 The same is most true
 To you and me too
 If Chaos convinces defeat
 
 
 To find blissful peace
 Surrender release
 To love's great redemption complete
 
 
 True beauty unfolds
 What love dearly holds
 As love rebukes Chaos to cease
 
 
 And friends in the wake
 Find blessing to take
 And with it the fullness of peace
