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.


A frosty forest, tells the tale
Of a knight, a man so brave
Thought he slayed the dragon
And left him in his cave

But little did he know
A dragon never rests
He waits for his revenge
Never settles second best

Mighty steed, across the bridge
They trod, through the snow
A banner, waving victory
While beast is down below

Good thing for the knight
The bridge was rather steep
He made it past the creature
Who was laying, fast asleep

This isn’t where the story ends
Perhaps, another tale, my friends

Let go your heart, set sail, across the mighty seas

Feel the freedom, in your soul, as it carries you away

Let the Magic take Control ~ #poetry #fairies

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

Complete the Task – #poetry – #MarchWriting – #dragons

Fly from me, sweet dragon, seek

Heed the words, I now, must speak

Find the kingdom, cross the land

Bring to me, the guarded strand

Kept close to she, the princess fair

You must catch her, unaware

Cast this spell, of sleep, upon her

O’er the knights, in forest yonder

Who think I am an ignorant fool

But I shall have their precious jewel

Complete this task, I set to thee

Bring back that which belongs to me

The piece that causes much vexation

For I never utter fruitless incantations
