the maple tree
lets go of its leaves
the pond returns
the face I have now
among the names
I find the ones
I still say aloud
angels keep
their stone hands joined
November drizzle
gathers in their wings
beyond the wall
#wolves lift their voices
the living
calling to the living
#vss365
Time be a #wolf—devouring light
Sowing black dahlias in our wake
Running shadows through the night
Bound to the choices we must make
An endless race in deep dark space
Fed by the need for a meaningful chase
Phrase: Pearlescent radiance Tag:#bionicanadian@bionicanadian 4likes/RT Pic⬇️@FoxProse
Pearlescent radiance of sunlit golden rays, sunburst like a halo through each break in the clouds. Jade green eyes perceive the softness of days, I ask the sky to become my every night!...
-
i shiver in the chaos
of Ragnarök,
alone without my
moon-mother’s soothing face.
this child sinned
to earn his penance -
a light claws the night,
speaks my name and
i am the raven
i am the wolf
the all-father smiles –
unbars the door.

#vss365#Prompt#Wolf
Greetings everyone! The first fairy tale I can remember was Little Red Riding Hood, and it's eponymous villain, the wolf. Will the wolf be the bad guy in your creations?
The #prompt for November 1st is #Wolf
Have fun writing out there 🙂
I see the ravenous thirst for knowledge in his mind’s eye. Glasses tilt as he moves from Latin syntax to The Bacchae. Time dissolves in a lamp’s pool of light. But my quiet sigh beckons; as those eyes turn to me. How can I not love this boy?
#vss365#bionicanadian@bionicanadian
that exhilaration
that only you
can imbue in me
that bliss
i miss
in every silence
that need
i can't deny
whenever i think you see me

Love does hurt,sometimes,
yet it exhilarates.
It builds; it never usurps.
Cast off the fears that lie,
unfurl your wings and try.
Hopeless, moonstruck fool…
yes, you, I am talking to you…
you too can learn to fly.

#vss365#exhilaration
Love, Devotion, Surrender
To serve outside these thoughts is a love supreme
Reality asks why does man face an unknown alone
Each moment becomes a question of our balance
When we’ve all met how does she know we’re real?
To learn as we refill an offered cup is our devotion
Divinity becomes one as each of us find our peace
Prokofiev asks if exhilaration is a dance or our song
Your eyes write symphonies in each gifted glance.
To offer everything without light is sweet surrender
Immortality fulfills even as we let everything leave
We’ve fought untold battles letting go of our pasts
Mine have written sonnets just to find yours again.

#vss365#poetry-dark
My loyal obsidian cauldron bubbles
As the midnight wind
Catches my tattered velveteen cloak
As bitter nightshade stains
My fingers pitch black
I leap into the howling sky
On wood splintered
Tasting the dark into my lungs
In cackling wild #exhilaration
#vss365#exhileration
when you are near
flowers lose their heads
and stars sway like drunks.
it is a secret you know
hidden in heartbeats
of the moon.
why else does the sun
jump the sky
in exhilaration
but to bow at your window
every dawn

Phrase:Creepy reverie Tag:#bionicanadian@bionicanadian 4lijkes/RT Pic⬇️@FoxProse
Tempest night, a chilly autumn illuminated by a gilded moon. See the hallowed halls that forest a creepy reverie of a gathering quietude like an abyss of stillness becoming the unsettling!...
-
i begin and end
in blood,
it courses through
the creases in my skin -
rivers flowing
into sunset mists -
a murmuration of swallows.
one last exhilaration -
a final exhalation -
your hand reaching,
seeking me,
guiding me home.
