Beauty Dwells
Beneath the Whispering
Of Willows Weeping
Guarded
By the Mighty Sword
Embraced by Excalibur
Magical Waters behold
Pure Mystical Powers
A Winsomeness Alluring
She Emerges from the Depths

Lavender shores paint the scene
Of a land sedate, and so serene
Where verdant grass and trees align
And form a vision, heavenly, divine
I have journeyed here, this very day
I think, perhaps, it’s where, I’ll stay
To watch the waters ripple gently
And listen to silence, quite intently
Let my mind wander, like the clouds
Far, far away from the noisy crowds
Yes, here is where I’ll find my solace
In this place, tranquil and flawless

Everywhere she turned
There were bow ties in the air
Flying about the kitchen
Out the door and up the stairs
She didn’t have a clue how
They jumped from out the pot
Trying to catch them in her hand
No good, they were too hot
Slipping and sliding on the floor
She had to find an easier way
To get them back in the water
And stop this aerial display
It was macaroni madness
The likes she’d never seen
And such a mess, who knew
Macaroni could be so mean
Finally, deciding to give up
Drenched in Alfredo cream
Grateful, when she realized
It was all just a terrible dream
**I don’t know about you, but Fettuccine Alfredo sounds good to me 😉

I’ve traveled here,
to sit, ponder
Basking in the glory
of nature
Feeling the warmth
of the sun
Soaking in the sounds
of water falling
(The rush of silence is awakening)
Freeing me, to find
my inner peace
These things,
I have somehow
Taken for granted,
Thinking they,
would always
be here for me
(Bestowed upon us from Heaven above)
And while the leaves
of the trees, provide
with their shade,
I shall always
turn my face
toward the light
(In thankful prayer for His many blessings)

A brilliant explosion, of light ‘cross the lake
Made the waters ripple, the ground, shake
Made colors shine, white, orange and green
An ethereal spark, like you never have seen
But what caused this light, to covet the land?
Surely, this wasn’t done, by one human hand
Perhaps, it is magical, a release, into stars
That cling to the night, in the sky’s reservoir
Then fall to the earth, with a dazzling flame
Such a radiance, only the heavens, could claim
January Writing Prompt – A brilliant light shined from the other side of the lake – Day 4/31
