Long days of hunting.

No rest, for the mighty king;

Family to feed.

When they are satiated,

I watch him sleep, peacefully.

Country girl

Left home readily

Big city

Brighter lights

Her daddy worried himself

Little girl no more

Through the portals of time

The universe expands

Darkness dissipates

With light’s open hands

*

Fire below us, scorches the earth

Heavenly auras, the soul of rebirth

*

Fear not the door

That takes you this way

Enter with faith

In this cosmic array

*

Feel the energy, the pulse of the sun

You and the universe, together, as one

Real Magic – #poetry #fairies

They dance, under the cover of night,

Disguised as snowflakes, tinged with light,

Filling the darkness, glistening bright,

Behold in the distance, a beautiful sight

 

Flittering about, whispers unheard,

Each to the other, without saying a word,

Not even a rustle, nor song, from a bird,

Yet, something inside you, is easily stirred.

 

Watch them carefully, for soon they’ll go,

This vision, you thought, was only snow,

No trace will they leave, but, this you’ll know,

Real, are the fairies, and the magic they bestow.

Child of Night – #poetry

Life in the shadows, child of night,

Ventures forth, as curiosity calls.

Stopping in her tracks, mesmerized

As the sun on her face, does fall

Frocked in tulle, a ballerina babe

Enchanted by the forest, she waits.

Flickers of light, against the trees,

Eyes become wider, pupils dilate.

She hesitates, afraid to go further,

Yet, something draws her into it,

A recollection of happier ways

In dreams, one must simply pursue it.

Come, child, it said,

Follow the rays.

Let the light guide you,

Through the darker days.”
