Where once was a door, is no longer there

Only bricks, and cracks, filled the space

I seem to remember, he, who lived here

Though I cannot, really, remember his face

Walking closer, I had to examine the wall

I really wished I weren’t so nearsighted

I, somehow, knew this wouldn’t be good

Then it hit me, twas a love, unrequited

In the blink of an eye, it had happened

The door that once was, had returned

He pulled me through, no way to go back

Tis what happens, when a lover is spurned

The lovely Helene of Willow Poetry has challenged us with “What do you See?”.  You may write a poem, haiku, tanka or short story that represents what you see or feel within you.  More info can be found in the link below.


Hidden deep, underneath, the crystal chandelier

A place so full of wonder, some say you’ll disappear

Into other’s imaginations, and places of unknown

Perhaps you’ll even find yourself, sat upon a throne

Oh, the many places, a book or two, will take you

Inside, secrets held, which perchance, could wake you

Watch the crystal ball, as it spins its magical spell

What happens next, friends, you simply cannot quell

Mystery and power, oh! And dragons, dance in rhyme

Guaranteed, I have no doubt, you’ll have a marvelous time!

So, step inside my parlor, grab a seat there, on the floor

And I’ll tell you about the library, a place you will adore

Once green the ground, now glistens in white

The full moon reflects, she shines ever bright

Tree branches sway, in the wind, to and fro

As they dance to the magic, of Christmas snow

She disguised herself well, to the other race

Once a human child, now elegance and grace

The fairies had found her, alone, oh so tragic

Quick as could be, they performed their magic

Gathered around her, they danced with glee

Watched as she welcomed them, happily

No longer alone, this child and her plight

Her life had been changed, by many a sprite

Now they flutter about her, protected is she

A beautiful swan, tis what I wish to be
