A Fey Masquarade

A Fey Masquarade

A Poem by Deirdre

In between day and night

The woods and meadow

The water and sky

Revel the merry folk

The merry folk and I

 

For I’ve seen the luna moth’s

Costume fall to the ground

In wild twists of fairy limbs

In silent celebration

Twilight revels and dewdrop orbs

 

Time runs backwards

Or Skips a beat

It leaves a peeping Mary’s mind

Slack and wondering

Glistening and awed.

 

For who can say a wandering trail

Leads back to known and wordly

When the revel dances have waned

And mortal sun looms back in sky

And water rushes forth.

God this is sweet .I too am a history buff and I too have the wish that the sum of all human knowledge had not been lost in Alexandrias fire.How can we see the future if we forget the past?

Wisdom is best known through experience, a piece well written. The words are descriptive and paint a picture for the reader. :)
