Out of the shadows they came
intertwined souls all lost
as if caught and held fast
in a newborn spiritual current.
Walking as if on clouds
as more and more
materialized out of the deep
world of darkness.
Imaginations roaming unbridled
awash in the dew of newness
they felt magic surrounding
the mysteries so overwhelming.
Like a homeless lonesome wind
dancing between life and death
restless spirits determined
reaching forth for eternity.
The womb of unknown ruptured
spewing forth with many secrets
spirits dancing as they soared
from the beginning of the end.
From somewhere in the distance
they become prisoners of destiny
still they look and will continue too
until they find the direction they seek!

Thank you for your entry, and your inspired reaction to the prompt. Your poem stands without the prompt, well done. My favourite lines - well, the whole poem is seamless, but I love particularly /in a newborn spiritual current/ and /Like a homeless lonesome wind, dancing between life and death/ Also, /the womb of unknown/ resonates to me. Very well done.
