Comment from Janice Canerdy
This is a skillfully-written, creative, and very thought-provoking piece, Yvette. I'm not sure which lies and battlefield you have in mind. I think perhaps you've left the possibilities open up to us. Lies have been told since the TRUE beginning, the Garden of Eden. There have always been "titans" bravely facing the wrongdoers, the liars. Well done!

I will leave the interpretation up to the readers... kindof like a journalist never reveals his sources, I never reveal my true meaning (wink, wink!) Thanx for the review here, and I do like your 'take' on it, Janice! ;) Take care and stay warm! ;) Yvette
Comment from Erika Seshadri
Wow, this is really a fantastic poem. The first two lines had me hooked!
'Twas the beginning of the darkness
when first the lies were told
Stunning. Can't wait to read more of your work. Cheers!

Comment from Susan Larson
Oh, Yvette, this is so foreboding of what I fear is to come in this world. I fear the coming battlefield, but try to keep believing that those fading dreams faith will experience a revival.

Comment from Bill Schott
This poem, Echoes of the Future, has all the required words and is presented with a compelling ABAB set of quatrains. This coming battle is foreseen through the titanic actions at the edge of tomorrow.

Day by day it does seem a little like that, the approaching storm, then its aftermath all seems to be conspiring to defeat the light, or light in the darkness. Brilliantly written my friend, superb poem, well done, blessings Roy

This sounds like a metaphoric poem about the attact on the Capitol.
It uses the words well.
Good luck in the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy.

Comment from Susan Louise Gabriel
An interesting way to weave the required words into a fascinating poem that gives one pause to stop and think. I like these two lines the best:
For as truth's champion did slumber,
fading still were dreams of faith
Thank you for sharing,
Susan

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem by using to be prescribed words. It seems like a doomsday message. All the lies are now one by one revealed and too many are deceived by false promises.

Very nice use of the words in the contest. I'm assuming the poem is about not losing hope in the face of lies and diversity. Kind of sounds like today's political sence. Best of luck to you in the contest. :)
