Set light upon the new day, let the beauty flutter about

Watch as the mystery glows, be still, fairies never tout

Disguised as tiny butterflies, see their essence shimmer

They are one with nature, making our world glimmer

Rise up to their calling, as they sweetly soothe your soul

Set light upon the new day, let the magic take control

A Simple Reason – #poetry – #JanuaryWriting

A simple reason was all she needed

To cover her face, and close her eyes

Sighing, with every ounce of her being

Realizing, this, was her final disguise

Staying well hidden, from the others

Who had intentions, for her, in mind

Men and women, alike, she had trusted

Most of them, she realized, quite unkind

Her only chance, at surviving this plight

Knowing nothing else mattered, you see

She simply would, disappear, in the night

Leaving nothing behind, but a mystery

Colleen’s challenge for us this week are the words Mystery and Attract.  Remember, you can only use synonyms to write your poetry!

Written as a Cinquain, my synonyms are Confidence and Alluring.


The look

Is alluring

While catching you off guard

Tis the confidence he exudes

That chills

The Library – #poetry #whatdoyousee?

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

It’s a Secret ~ #poetry #WOTD #FOWC #RDP

They’ll deliver a package, but it’s a mystery to whom

I’m hopeful she’ll like it, cause it’s covered in blooms

I had to make a choice, a Secret Santa I became

Can’t tell anyone who it is, that’ll ruin the game!
