The Magical Spectrum

Take me where
The fireflies dance
And the meteors rain down
Bringing new star seeds
To Mother Earth

Bring me home
Where a dryad
Is always hiding
Within a Yule tree
Take me
To the mighty oak
Where the fairy folk
Live deep within
Aged roots of perfection
For no home is complete
Without their gentle touch

Let me dance
With James
The royal librarian
Under the spiral
Of an ancient bibliotheque
For he collects all my words
Keeping them safe
For future elf kin to read 

Let me adventure
Into different dimensions
Where comfort awaits
For it's too harsh here
Among the ruins
Of a developing civilization ©

Half awake
I scribe poetry
Effortlessly
Not even a drop 
Of coffee by my side
Cozy under
A heap of covers
I do lie ©

Microcosm of Poetry: 12

Honey
Your dramarama
Is too much for me
I'd rather play
Russian Roulette
In the quicksand
Than listen to
The hogwash
You preach ©

Microcosm of Poetry: 11

Empty words
Are lifeless gestures
Decorated in
Extravagant 
Christmas paper
Topped with 
A god awful
Gaudy bow ©

Lullabies lost
Static creeping in
Cringe worth spider's venom
How it all starts to seep in ©

The worse pain
Inflicted upon a soul
Is abandonment
By a loved one
During illness ©

Abuse
Shreds souls
Bit by bit
Nuking
All inter sanctity ©
