When she is all alone
Her lover abscent
The sweet lady spends her time in quiet contemplation
Of the yearning and longing for her lover to return.
She walks the lonely forests deep with butterflies as her only comfort
Her face akin to the Full Moon on a dark night
Magical energies dance in her pressence
How wonderful the pressence of you who embody the nymphs of heaven
In your mortal shell.
She walks the night in silence as
the Owl of the Goddess flies silently overhead
Sacred charms blest by her silent breath the one reminder that her lover will
return
One day
To Avalon.
