Decembers poem .. truly humbled and blessed .. 'Turned from the edge'
there is an accompanying image on the site from Good fairies/bad faeries
also remembering my beautiful son Thomas William Eliis who would have been sixteen today x x
Echoed whispers choke
in tangled reeds
entwined, curling, creeping vine ..
licking
lashed
in darkness bold,
daring,
darting, yet so cold.
Gripped by an icy stabbing heart, fixating fevers penetrate to part.
Invasive dreams, conjure spiralling fears, compelling forwards in
vales of tears ..
drips
everflowing
creates a stream
cascades
evades
edged life serene ..
Release! Release!
the cry screams out
twisting
shaken
let me out!!
back from where all reasons sense, harbouring feelings never meant.
Suddenly the path is clear, ice melts fast from mortal fear. Faery
Lilu's shed her grip, from crystal waters calmly sip ~ ~
refreshing
lifted
lightened pain
only healings now to gain

'Awakening'
Raven haired or titian locked, ruby red or chocolate box, silvery strands curl raven streaks but however she looks, here she speaks.
Distanced space means nought to her as she journeys by the heart. Souls passions conceal, excites deep inner being, she doesn't just live, she feels and breathes with fire in her belly fuels adventures to explore, encountering her an honour, shared thoughts trusting treasured store.
Powers inherent instill awakened stirrings of a deep inner spirit, releasing souls unmasked to who you truly are, no colouring, bared, flamed, alive, feelings and passions stir and strive. Don't let her go, please listen hard, for she is life and she is you, whether old or young always stay true, have no regrets for what has been, for here she speaks and you have seen.
Yikes !!! Friday 13th strange isn't it you go about your daily activities and then suddenly realise the date Ohh Ohh and all of a sudden you think something untoward is going to happen. Are you one of those really superstitous people who do not even get out of bed on this date and stay snuggled up under the covers. Or has something good happened on this date ~ one thing it is always a date that takes people and brings them up short if only for a brief sharp intake of breath, a moment of doubt, then on with the day ~ Have a great weekend everyone TC LIb
