    This is a poem I wrote. I need my dear friends opinion to see if it is good enough. Hear it goes.

    "Longing"

    I long for the time in my life that I was important to the world

    I long for the time in the world when the old religion and beliefs were practiced

    I long for the place where magic was alive... where believing in something meant you gave it your mind, body and soul

    I long for my family that are gone. The ones that loved me and the ones that scorned me

    I long for the Goddess to speak to me

    I long to be a priestess in the great sisterhood of Avalon

    I long to find peace for the things in my life that I did wrong

    The one thing I do not long for is to know who I am... For I am Morgan Le Fey, Queen to the Fairies, Daughter of the Goddess, High Priestess of Avalon

    I don't consider myself "qualified" to critique poetry but I think your words are from the heart and I liked it.
    Keep writing Marilyn, its a beautiful way to express what's in your heart!
    Oh, and by the way.... from one Avalon fan to another: My niece's name is Morgan Le Fey. She just turned 10 this week. I have told her since she was tiny what a special name she has.
    I look forward to reading more of your writing.
