Featured Poems -

She was skipping,
dancing and leaping,
rosy magic guiding her
along the swirling path.
Through the turning
of the seasons,
heartbreak and war,
the pain of her soul
she had journeyed so far.
It had been heavy
and light,
healing
and painful
just to reach
this land of immortals.
And yet here, among gods,
among spirits that
live forever...
she felt like a child
once more.
