Riding into the Abyss

Can you ride into the abyss with me? For that is where I am headed. The way will be dark I know. How long will it take? Maybe some, maybe many ‘morrows. But I have been there before, and know some pathways. And I see in your heart some light from the dark-ways. So will you walk with me this night?... Sign in to see full entry.

Wind Sister

Rise and fall, Rise and fall, I… I Stumble, I…. "Ride the Wind" She beckons to me. "Onward, forward" on this strange journey. "On with the wind" Moving again, she calls to me; "Unburden your heart, let free your soul; leap on my wings and soar" Whispering to me, she says I’m free. "Free…Free….Free"...

Please

Plant my feet in the Earth, so I know that I am home. Lay my heart in a tree, so I know that I am free. Wash my face in the ocean. Blow hot air through my hair. Play with my soul naked, but not bare. Sign in to see full entry.

Shadow Play

I love you still. Even as leaves fall and turn to dust. For in the power of love I’ve come to trust. Even now as you are turned away, exploring the night, and in shadows play; I wait. In places where light and dark all turn grey, like smoke to Heaven when we pray. Sign in to see full entry.

Breath to Breath

Lying on the forest floor. Damp leaves eco the spring’s rain. Flies herald the crowning summer. Blood pulses through our veins, through limb, bark and leaves. Our shared breathing mirroring the ebb and flow. Exhalations from chlorophylled friends fills my body alive, just as on my own spent breath... Sign in to see full entry.

Dark Lover

Darkness loves me; wanders lovingly, with eyes caressing me. The dark loves me, welcomes me home, gives me shelter, calls my true name. I fear I wander lost; searching. Where are the loving arms, to hold me, to know me? I flee and fly, between light and dark. But the dark loves me, and pulls me,... Sign in to see full entry.

Sap Rising

The sap rises in me. As the moon is full and the trees weep their spilt juices onto the Earth. In the fullness of my longing I felt the weight of our bones. The scent of your hair. Your course tender kiss on my cheek. My body lay in dark damp clotted Earth. My skin one, within the ground of your... Sign in to see full entry.

Panther Hunt

Stalk me, Chase me, Hunt me Smell me. Find me in long grass, waist high. Snakes coiling, dreaming awake passion for Earth’s sake. With panther breath on your thigh, hush your hunt and hear her sigh. And she will hold you when you cry, as things from summer all must die. Sign in to see full entry.

Antlers Shed

Antlers have fallen plunk into powder snow. Had I known myself better, I would not question whether the season is right. Crystalline frost bites, chilling my dormant horns. And I wonder whether my budding hopes can survive this. When will my antlers grow strong again? What form shall they take? Sign in to see full entry.

Fireflies imitating celestial bodies.

Fireflies Imitating Celestial Bodies Like a lake reflecting the moon, her beauty is mirrored back in adoring slivers of light. Gestures reminding her that she is not alone while tracking the night. Fish jumping from rippled water between starlight and reflection; celebrating the union of Heaven and... Sign in to see full entry.
