I followed the curve of a winding road, not knowing where I was going. The subtle breeze that sent a chill, let me know, the wind was blowing. I brushed away the strands of hair, which fell across my face. Wandered down the sandy path which led me to this place. Stopping for a moment, I felt a rush, much colder than before. I heard water splashing, in the distance, as it lapped against the shore. The road twisted on, unending, as the path grew longer still. I didn’t think I’d make it, but it gave me such a thrill. So journey on, I must, to find what there may be. It’s waiting for me, patiently.  I call it destiny.

A Twinge of Fate ~ #poetry #MarchWriting

It is, by chance, I find me here

Destiny lies in my utmost fear

Down below, the waters thrash

From up above, the falls do crash

Spraying droplets, upon my skin

As I ponder, should I jump in?

To drown in the eddies, that violently swirl

As I throw myself in, with an agonizing hurl

Or shall I sit here, letting the pain escalate?

And live with this, everlasting, twinge of fate?

The path I took has led me here
Though I know not why I came

An entry tempts my curiosity
To pass it by, would be a shame

A few steps closer, and I’ll be there
Though I know not if I should

Enter the darkness awaiting me
Perhaps I’ve misunderstood

What brought me to this place
And why I’m afraid to go in

For what lies ahead is destiny
To pass it by, would be a sin

Transformed ~ #poetry

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
