Beauty And Fury

A misty path I follow

Deep in the woods

Named Hollow,

Forbidden I was told

But never listen

I suppose,

I hear sounds

Never heard before

But that doesn't stop my journey

Onward I explore,

Searching for what is forbidden

Why I wonder

What they want to keep hidden,

Ahead of me, I see

This magnificent light

Coming from a fountain

Alluring emerald water cascading elegantly,

A wishing well it seems

For there are coins tossed

Assuming for hopeful dreams,

Fairies with iridescent wings

Flutter about

As if enticing me

To toss a coin of my own

But there is something

That leads me to doubt,

Were others lured by this beauty

Did their dreams come true

Feeling unsure, unsafe

I turn to escape

For fear this path

Beholds not only beauty

But also an underlying fury.

OOOHHHH :D :D :D :D This is probably one of my favorites of yours!!! I loved the idea and the words you used to describe it. The only thing I really had a problem with was that it seemed like you cut off the lines at the wrong places, and I think some of the magic..ness - yeah, magicness - of the poem was lost because of that.

The descriptions are really magical... A lot of hidden meanings...
I also liked the name of the woods..

"But that doesn't stop my journey
Onward I explore,"
The dangerous effects of curiosity...

thumbs up!!!
