Shades of Crimson

innocent white lamb
                                deep darkness; shades of crimson
                                           golden lion roars

Excellent senryu. I like it. He is the lamb Who takes away the sins of those who accept Him as their Savior. Thanks for sharing this one with us and for dropping by my page with congratulations. Sara

No! I cry out! Here you’ve penned the entire history in eleven words, three lies that pull me prostrate to the ground weeping. The power of words? The power of a poet’s voice? The stunning truth of language and image over staying silent? Yes! You’ve set down here the truth of poetry to power, catalyst for motion to the heart, mind & soul. Heaven blesses your pen for its touching truth xox

Sally, thank you so much for your comment, I am incredibly blessed that you felt so strongly the message behind these few words. Our Lord, the innocent precious lamb of God is truly the Lion who is powerful and just! May He bless you and keep you and make His face to shine upon you my sweet friend <3

My poem is a depiction, just an image that came to my mind after I read from the book of Revelation in chapter 5 verses 5-6. The lamb is the escape, and the lion is the lamb :)

I'm not so clever, but thank you Deb <3 It is just my depiction taken from the book of Revelation Chapter 5 verses 5 and 6, the lion and the lamb. <3
