Pathway to Renewal: Sonnet

Warfare and famine, plagues tainting the land

Broken and bleak; the world cold with despair

The sky craved rebirth, but only grew greyer

Life had no meaning when nothing could stand

Feudalism’s strength, crushed by ruling hands

Chained down by kings who owned all but a care

Innocents seized without reason that’s fair

Questioning God’s design, a plan naught grand

Behold, rebirth. Dawn gleamed on morning dew

All rejoiced and embraced the path of light

Celebrating art, both ancient and new

Evolution’s success, bound to take flight

Yearning no more, the canvas grey to blue

Our redemption after terrible plight
