mermaid-730432_960_720
Swept ashore, she arrives with the tides

Beauty lies silent, she no longer hides

In waters that flow, harmonic, attune

Where the sun quietly rises, along with the moon

When peace stills thunderous clouds in the sky

With stars that still sparkle, radiant, high

She’ll sleep, ever blissful, upon solemn land

A mermaid’s dream, so carefully planned

Sleep, sweet angel, til morning’s light

Heaven will comfort you, through the night

The grace of God will protect and guide

With momma and poppa, by your side

Sleep, sweet angel, under sky’s delight

Dreams come alive, in the soft moonlight

Friday Fantasy ~ Final Warning #dark #poetry

fear-615989_960_720
She froze, like frost on blades of grass in morning

No need to venture farther, she’d heed this final warning

Footsteps in the distance, she was not there alone

Was that a floorboard creaking, or a wandering spirit’s moan?

Stretching out, listening, hoping she could hear

Shrinking back against the wall, all she felt was fear

Heartbeats getting louder, twas the pounding of her heart

Knowing she’d no time to waste, this demon she’d outsmart

Bathed in sweat, and shivering, her clothes now soaked, it seemed

Waking up, inside her head, afraid of her own dream

woman-1300986_960_720
Do I dare to dream, in morning light?

Or toss these thoughts aside?

Promises cast upon the sea

Swept away, with the evening tide

I walk along these rocky shores

In hopes that I may find

A trace of you, a subtle hint

Or something left behind

I stand here, chasing shadows

Found in the water’s swell

They circle close, around my soul

Then wish a fond farewell

Was it you I caught a glimpse of?

Can you see me waiting here?

Yes, I will stand upon this ocean

Til you let me know you’re near

Colors line this path I take

Brilliant, in their earthly wake

Leading me to time, serene

Surrounding me with beauty, seen

In wondrous ways, upon the land

This sight, that truly is so grand

Where in the distance, sunlight beams

Of possibility, hope and dreams

Keeps me steady, on my way

As I take in, the light of day

That lets me walk this mighty trail

O’er the top, I cannot fail
