She watches them, gather around her

Iridescent beings, like tiny snowflakes

Seeing her beauty, they surround her

This is where she should be, no mistake

With the old tree, finally fallen, she sits

Reaching down, to the water below

Trying to collect just one shining star

She knew just how far she could go

This could possibly be her last chance

To mingle with the spirits, earthbound

For the season, you see, was changing

And she would no longer be here, nor found

I always tend to be an optimist

But these days I’m not quite sure

Every day it gets harder and harder

I don’t know how much I can endure

I try not to get overwhelmed

By the daily routine of my life

But I’m stuck in a rut, an abyss

One that’s filled with unbearable strife

Pessimism was never my forte

Though the times have changed, you see

I’m beginning to think I’ve forgotten

How beautiful this life can be

The full moon, a mere speck in the sky

A wolf, this powerful creature, was I

Transformed, I found my perfect place

No longer human, I have a new face

Whitened, my hair, like the snow, was my fur

Now a she wolf, I was no longer her

This was my destiny, ne’er to stray

Knowing I’d forever, stay this way

Her Gypsy Soul ~ poetry #freeverse

She stands among the fallen leaves

Her gypsy soul envelops them

Awaiting the moment, where

She can become one with them

Deep in thought, her dreams, surpassed

She clings to them, for comfort

Knowing soon, as the seasons change

The trees will surely welcome them
