Priestess of the emerald wood

Shrouded in nature’s mystery

Branches reach to seek and find

A gentle beauty, strong and free

Oracle of Life, divine
Ageless in her sunlit stance
Graceful limbs intertwined
Mesmerizing at a glance

Leaves of green do bow and sway

In rhythmic symmetry

She breathes her soul into the day

With the beautiful splendor of a tree

The path I took has led me here
Though I know not why I came

An entry tempts my curiosity
To pass it by, would be a shame

A few steps closer, and I’ll be there
Though I know not if I should

Enter the darkness awaiting me
Perhaps I’ve misunderstood

What brought me to this place
And why I’m afraid to go in

For what lies ahead is destiny
To pass it by, would be a sin

She flies above the astral plane
Gathering stars as she goes
A heavenly being, the sky, her reign
The universe, scattering, grows

Wings aflutter, in the night
This creature, is like no other
Galaxies born, of power and might
She is, our celestial mother

Watch, as her beauty carries along
Though, a mystery, quite arcane
She is the one, who makes us strong
The universe, is her worldly domain

His Crush ~ #poetry #FebruaryWriting

The winds blew silently against her

Dress swayed, like ripples in the sea

She stood there, in the twilight

Enjoying life, unbothered, carefree

All he could see in the darkness

Were her six red balloons, in the sky

He thought about calling out to her

But all he could do was just sigh

Wondering if he should approach her

The thoughts in his head turned to mush

It would be another Valentine’s Day, spent alone

He’d have to dream, about his mystery crush

Mistress of the Flame ~ #dark #poetry

She dances with the fire

A mistress of the flame

Where some must go, to find her

Yet, no one knows her name

She swirls about, like smoke

She is kindled from the ashes

And she’ll burn you, this is certain

With each spark, her power flashes

Her mystery, kept hidden

Her secrets, safe within this place

The spirit, who feeds on fire

Is the girl, who has no face

 

Author’s Note:  Have you ever looked into a fire and wondered what it was you saw?  There are always fire spirits present.  Can you see her cloak?   😉
