The Forest

August 13, 2021August 9, 2021 daisyknox

Sweetgum, blackjack oak, magnolia, willow and sassafras The gentle ferns so delicate, soft frond like angel’s breath Twining through the undergrowth, spouting from the richest loam Decaying strands of grass and leaves, fortifies the host

Cold black fingers grip my heart Sweeping tentacles of dread They wrap around my every thought Always in my head The weight of darkness crushes down There’s no escaping it The silence mocks, so ominous But any sound would be suspect It’s always there, the menace The threat that chases me No matter if it’s… Continue reading The Unknown

Summer Storm

August 4, 2021August 2, 2021 daisyknox

Sky so blue and Warmest sunshine Hot air and cold breeze Cherry blossoms Sweetest lilac Summer comes to me Colored lights Calliope music Dusky rainbow sky Sharing secrets Running freely Playing through the night
