Are You The One?

First and foremost, let me welcome you to my blog. I appreciate my friends & family taking the time to visit my site and share their opinions of my work. Please feel free to discuss how the poetry made you feel or the thoughts that were sparked. Your comments will mean a great deal towards enlightening me on how literature can evoke a certain sentiment. With that said, I would like to invite you to preview the first installment of Poetry In eMotion. Moving forward, I shall contribute to this site my energy in words. There will be no customary format for my work. Some will rhyme; some will not. And the subject matter will vary. But what I can assure you is that there will be a purpose. And in the end, you will follow me through the experience and realize the essence of poetry.

Ladies & gentlemen, I present to you Darius "Literature" Lane. This week's selection is below. My first poetic entry is in 4-line stanza and the subject matter that I will be discussing is Barack Obama. This particular poem is short to start off with. Others will generally be longer. Enjoy.


Are You The One?

Are you the one?
Our hopes and our dreams, the man to lift us over the hurdles,
Are you the one?
Iron-will, gentle soul, he that realizes our prayers,

Are you the one?
Democratic you stand, his principles enlighten the nation,
Are you the one?
Forever fortunate we are, may you lead where only imagination dare take us.


Thank you all for your stopping by. I look forward to sharing with you my next entry. I will update once a week with my latest poem. God bless.
