Secrets of the Night

In the forest after midnight

She walks a path alone

Among the owl and the pine

Is where she truly feels at home

A universe wide open

Secrets many it can tell

If you only listen closely

It can teach it’s many spells

The moon is like a mother

A glowing, guiding hand

The air is but a whisper

Silent footfalls on the land

What is it that she seeks?

Even she is quite unsure

The answers are elusive

Is it poison or a cure?

When she finds it she will know

In perfect time it will be shown

All the secrets of the night

The likes of which she’s never known

ยฉ The Beginning At Last

  4. I could really feel her as she walked through the forest, looking for what she was waiting to find. (Did that make sense? LOL) There is mystery and enchantment which I absolutely love.
