455. A child has two spirits: ill and well

SONNET 455

By JH Sayyar
A child has two spirits: ill and well
Human soul guards, living in brain
One draws to heaven, other to hell
Men’s wisdom enjoys sits in a lane
Spirits in mind, in shape of notions
Guiding soul, talking men in lone
When greed spreads in commotions
In such situation; talks in low tone
Tells before men; fall in evil deed
A heart voice motion in right lung
Grows in hearts: evil will; its seed
When wisdom fails attacks young

In silence; listen to Angels’ voice
Spirits guide men in wrong choice
