Once Forbidden

Saturn skies, starlit glow

Blazing skies afire

Birds in flight, waters flow

Visions to inspire

Take me on a magical ride

Filled with untold secrets

Take me to the realm you hide

The place where no one frequents

Let me open up the door

Unlock the treasures hidden

Let me show you so much more

In places once forbidden

Shimmering Splendor

Tags

, , , , , , , ,

Morning awakens
The gentle slumber of the sea
Casting a brilliance of crimson
Against mountains, still restless
From the ebony night

A gentle rippling
Of the ocean tide
Sends shimmering splendor
Across pale blue, basking
In the sun’s radiant light

Reflections linger
In the water’s hue
A quiet caress, waking day
Whilst Heaven’s jewel, softly
Colors black with a glorious sight

Listen

Listen, do your hear them
The gentle sounds of spirits
Whispering softly
Among themselves
Listen! Do you hear it?

Locked forever in the ruins
Of yesterday’s gone by
Ethereal creatures
On the wisp of a wind
Their voices quietly sigh

Lost forever in this place
Yet, solace do they find
Dancing about
In mysterious ways
Body, soul and mind

Yes, their voices fill the stillness
The gentle sounds of spirits
Whispering softly
Among themselves
Just listen, you will hear it

Allergic to “E” Challenge ~ Dirty Bird

Tags

, , , , ,

I was nominated by Erika Kind for the  – Allergic to “E” Challenge.  Be sure to visit & follow her blog!!  Her Daily Kind Quotes” are wonderful!

I got a little goofy and here’s my “challenge”.

Dirty Bird
I saw a bird flying high
Wings waving, soaring by
Landing on a mound of dust
Blowing from a windy gust
Trying hard to find a spot
A bill of dirt is what it got

 

You don’t realize how hard it is to string together words without the letter E, until you actually have to do it!!  There are rules, such as nominating others, but I can see that most of you have already taken a stab and have come up with some quite entertaining ditties!!  So I’m skipping the nominations.  Feel free to take the challenge.  See how creative you can be 🙂

Have fun if you decide to give it whirl!!!

Friday Fantasy ~ Fire of Life

Tags

Ashes Breathe the Fire of Life
Rising from Smoldering Flames
Frenzied and Fevered
She Ignites a Spark
Captivating her Claim

Unearthly Desires Swirl from within
Kindling a Blaze, Incandescent
Charred and Blackened
She Leaves a Mark
Her Fiery Heart, Incessant
