Hey down there, can you see me?

I’m waving, from way up here

Tethered, to this mechanical arm

In space, the “Final Frontier”

Surely, you cannot miss me

I’m floating around in midair

My comrades said I wouldn’t do it

So, I’m really out here, on a dare

Now comes the part that’s the hardest

Seems the shuttle was on its last trip

Can someone please come and get me?

They left me hanging in space, with no ship!

Little Lady Lily, such a silly forest sprite

Got stuck in a tree, and stayed there all night

Til a bird landed on her, but it couldn’t speak elf

Lady Lily didn’t care, she’d have to teach it herself

Soon, many feathered friends, learning the words

Did pass them along, to all the other birds

The little forest creatures, kept chattering away

Seems all this time, they’d had an awful lot to say

Lady Lily didn’t care, decided to build a new home

Up in the tree, a little nest, the only one, with a dome

Through the Glade ~ #poetry

She walks like a feather

Afloat through the trees

Mesmerized by the light

She approaches with ease

Unaware of what’s hidden

Still she cannot resist

With soft, silent footsteps

She is lost to the mist

Hears it beckon to her

Child, be not afraid

And she glides ever closer

Through the dark forest glade

I walk the path, far into the woods, and suddenly lose my way. Ahead, I sense an energy, one I haven’t felt all day. I see it rising, high above me, covered in moss from the land, and realize I am no longer lost, for this stone shows the path, well planned.

It tells me to journey onward, no need to fear this place; for here is where the spirits dance, how I long to see their face. I marvel at this majestic sight, on a marble slab, it stands; and with its mighty energy, I bow, and clasp my hands.

Allowing those around me, to channel their way through; and thank the kindly forest, for keeping them, here, so true. I best be on my way, I have other places to see; however long it takes me, I have found my energy.

For in this forest, serenity, as the spirits take control; and I shall return, again, one day, for I am one, now, with its soul.

Nestled in the dark

Hidden by emerald leaves

A wood creature stands

Guarding his territory

From those who dare destroy it
