Those days, well spent, watching the moon

I longed to be up there, to listen, commune

Along with the stars, shining so sweetly

She’s captured my heart, ever so completely

A child of the moonlight, carefree, gliding

While I’m down on Earth, watching, hiding

I don’t want her know, how I envy her place

Happily swinging, oh, the joy on her face!

I’ll wait in the shadows, as she flies in the night

In my eyes, she is starlight, glistening bright

I burn with a fire
And quench your desire
All with the touch of my hands
No choice can you make
Your soul I will take
I’m more than you can withstand

As flames light the sky
Mischievous, sly
And fall to the earth from above
The land will ignite
With passion’s delight
As you feel my lust for your love

I will lead you astray
Then wash it away
With an iciness kept deep inside
From my clutch you can’t run
I have chosen the one
My hunger cannot be denied

Through the portals of time

The universe expands

Darkness dissipates

With light’s open hands

*

Fire below us, scorches the earth

Heavenly auras, the soul of rebirth

*

Fear not the door

That takes you this way

Enter with faith

In this cosmic array

*

Feel the energy, the pulse of the sun

You and the universe, together, as one

Real Magic – #poetry #fairies

They dance, under the cover of night,

Disguised as snowflakes, tinged with light,

Filling the darkness, glistening bright,

Behold in the distance, a beautiful sight

 

Flittering about, whispers unheard,

Each to the other, without saying a word,

Not even a rustle, nor song, from a bird,

Yet, something inside you, is easily stirred.

 

Watch them carefully, for soon they’ll go,

This vision, you thought, was only snow,

No trace will they leave, but, this you’ll know,

Real, are the fairies, and the magic they bestow.
