A vision appears in the dark of night

Rather gnome like or perhaps ogre

Simply floating about, blocking

What lies ahead of me, still

I ignore, best I can

This apparition

It plays games

Abhorrent

Loathsome

Thing

It

Tries me

Go away

You quite bore me

And I know better

I remain here, watching

It dissipates in the air

Swirling about, creative mist

A cloud of smoke no longer inhaled

But exhaled, letting it escape my soul

I wasn’t able to participate in Sue’s #writephoto – Glimmer – last week, but the picture was too beautiful to pass up.  Better late than never!  🙂


Tis but a glimmer

Of light that shines below me

Ah but the night calls

In a glowing masterpiece

Painted by the setting sun

Where what appears, as a mere cobweb

Actually has something, well hidden

A coven of witches, hold court inside

Sorry, mundane, you’re forbidden

Only the powerful may pass the door

A simple spell will never make it

You must study with the master witch

Trust me, you’ll never be able to fake it

For these witches know the ones so true

They can feel the vibrance, profound

Stay back, if you know what’s good for you

Or in their web, you are sure to be bound

The sound of the rain against the window pane, like a constant knocking. Loved ones from above, trying to come in. Let me open the window…

I’m awake at this ungodly hour and it is raining. Usually it lulls me to sleep, but not tonight. Too much on my mind, so I will just lie here and listen. Join me, won’t you?

I walk the path, far into the woods, and suddenly lose my way. Ahead, I sense an energy, one I haven’t felt all day. I see it rising, high above me, covered in moss from the land, and realize I am no longer lost, for this stone shows the path, well planned.

It tells me to journey onward, no need to fear this place; for here is where the spirits dance, how I long to see their face. I marvel at this majestic sight, on a marble slab, it stands; and with its mighty energy, I bow, and clasp my hands.

Allowing those around me, to channel their way through; and thank the kindly forest, for keeping them, here, so true. I best be on my way, I have other places to see; however long it takes me, I have found my energy.

For in this forest, serenity, as the spirits take control; and I shall return, again, one day, for I am one, now, with its soul.
