Just Hanging and Chatting

Life In A Box

I live within a quiet box
That’s all windows and dreams.
It seems as if I am alive,
But nothings as it seems.
 
I watch the world pass by each day,
Like lights on passing cars,
Though they’re just past my window pane
They might as well be stars.
 
For I peer outside, longingly,
But I am trapped within
This little box with dreams of lives
That never quite begin.

Faery Shade

The little faeries danced and played
Then sought their shelter 'neath it’s shade

Decay

Within the transience of life
We each must find a way
To live the fullness of our lives,
Delaying the decay.

The Dryad's Love

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Dryad saw him in her dreams

And called him to her side,
For her love was a magic love,
That could not be denied.
But they were of two different worlds,
Worlds that tend to collide.
She knew her love would bring his death,
Which she could not abide,
And so she hid her face from him…
Her love she could not hide.

Fearful Winter

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When the winter shrouds the sunlight

In the mists of deepening fear
Where the fire, burning brightly
On the hearth stone, still brings no cheer.
 
When black murders are on the wing,
For each crow fears to fly alone
And the ice, with its gnawing teeth,
Causes strong boughs to crack and groan.

When the bright blue waves of summer

Darken to a grim, tombstone grey
While the sky grows thick with weeping
Clouds that drown the frail light of day.
 
There, within the heart of winter,
Lies the last hope a new spring,
But that hope is all too fragile,
Any relief from fear, to bring.

The Colors of My Day

The Faerie Mushroom

 

I saw her peeking round the stem,

Her little eye alight,
A Faerie laughed and waved at me
Then flickered out of sight.

I know I saw her standing there,
A little Faerie lass,
But she slipped off with just a wink
Between two blades of grass!

Pearls in a Strand

The little pearls spilled everywhere,

As delicate as glass,

Sparkle as the sun breaks through.

Raindrops on the grass.

Burls and Barnacles

That Face.... That Grace!
