The lovely Helene of Willow Poetry has challenged us with “What do you See?”. You may write a poem, haiku, tanka or short story that represents what you see or feel within you. More info can be found in the link below.
I have traveled far
Ice beneath my feet
The full moon
My guiding star
Shining ever sweet
My staff aglow
As I step closer
To this place
Where
Inside my heart
I hold an empty space
The castle lights are bright
Each a single flame
Perhaps, lit
For my approach
From whence I came
I’ve still, a father path
To follow, to the door
Where I can embrace
My loved one
Forevermore
The snowy plains
And mounts
Have been good to me
Allowing this
Half-hearted body
To take me, safely
One final length
To my journey
Soon I will be there
To seal the hole
Long ago left
By my departed lady fair

Dorinda, I felt this all the way through, beautifully written.
A big sigh when I read the following words:
“One final length
To my journey”
