Look inside the cauldron
We’ve something here for you
Stir and stir, we must you see
To make this witch’s brew

Don’t listen to the owl
His hoot is nothing new
Come to us, my little sweet
We’ll show you what to do

Trust in us, just take a sip
You mustn’t misconstrue
This potion is your destiny
Our witch’s craft for you

#poetry, #TBT, fantasy, night, Night Owl Poetry, poems, shadows, specters, spirits, Throwback Thursday, woods

Spirits awakening
Filling the night
Whispering Softly, Enfolding, Embracing

Banishing darkness
Bringing shadows to light
Rhythmically Floating, Playing, Chasing

They dance in a swirl
Not a word do they say
Silently Singing, Heavenly, Divine

Summoning forth a Revenant Specter
To guide you on your way
Celestial Seraph, Ethereal, Sublime

Darkness Prevails

Hidden where the spirits loom

Their shelters torn and tattered

Ethereal beings meet their doom

Lost souls about are scattered

Perched upon her marble tomb

Her body broken, battered

No pleasure left, all consumed

A life once whole, now shattered

In the dank and misty gloom

The shadow of a figure lies….

 

….Darkness prevails when an angel dies

Drawn to You

#poetry, calling, dorindaduclos.com, Drawn to You, love, moon, Night Owl Poetry, ocean, poems, sea, slave, surrender, waters

full-moon-451605_960_720I am drawn to you

As the sun is drawn to the west

Silent anticipation arising

In the brilliance of your glow

In the hours before I rest

With the waters, capsizing

I am caught in your undertow

Feelings no longer repressed

The seas ever rising

You capture me in your flow

And in the silent hours, obsessed

My heart surrenders, surprising

Conquering me at your behest

The Sock Dragon ~ A Whimsical Tale

#poetry, dorindaduclos.com, dragon, fantasy, lingerie, Night Owl Poetry, poems, The Sock Dragon, underwear, whimsical, whimsy

Gather up the laundry
Sort it in a pile
Separate the darks and lights
Set the washer’s dial

Toss them in the dryer
Tumble them on low
Pull them out when they are done
Now where did one sock go?

I know it was there when I started
I wonder about its fate
Until I look up and to my surprise
I see who stole its mate

Yes, there he is up in a tree
All spread out on a limb
Lying on top of a pile of my socks
He keeps hidden under him

I wonder why he needs them
Do you think he cares?
I must admit, I’ve never seen
A dragon in underwear
