Land of craft and witch devine,
Oh such beauty tethered
In stardust plumes,
Sunkissed aura light my darkened whim.
In midst of she wolf cries,
Prey falls silent,
Autumn leaves crumple,
Twisted in broken conscience.
Seek the crystal tempest,
Thundering hooves ride skies
Of distant dawns,
Trampled dreams of yesterday.
Awaken child, cast aside thy dread,
For the devil flies not
On wings of silken hope,
Nor brings forth fruit
From thy stamen of life

Superb
Ah, 'tis a fine write indeed, and does reflect some of my rather eclectic spiitual beliefs. Thank you for sharing this one. -
Well this certainly makes the comment you left on my work
all the more valued.
I do not say this lightly.
I love the British people...
my work is so well received there...
The title..Exquisite.. a talent i have not yet accomplished, the phrasing seems to come with great ease.
Some how i can tell a natural writer by their flow.
Each stanza is a piece of beautiful tapestry woven together to bring absolute magic....the third stanza is so well placed and lends such credence to the piece that I am beside myself with joy that i read it to begin with.
You should be proud my brother,
I know i am for taking time for once that was so well spent, that if i was there i would shake your hand.
This piece transported me
It is truly Art.
I will read more.
Help yourself to more of mine,
I try to scrutinize every piece to eradicate boredom.
Apparently you do the same ten fold.
Blessings always brother,
LOWELL POE.

What I have read I like but feel that it is unfinished, I can't explain this to you, it's just that I felt that I wanted to read more. I would love to read it again if you ever lengthen it. Val

Awsomeness
I really like this one because I'm pagan and it brings me back to the spiritual journey I take everyday with my connection to my faith and this world. Hope you write some more of this natural state of dispersement.
Blessed Be,
