Step with me, then
through muggy fog
our footsteps silence
song of frog...
past the stump of cypress knee
into the bog past hermit's keep
forget the shadows in the wood--
keep eyes on path, where they should
remain lest lust deceive the eye
already blind by tears I've cried
So walk with me into the wood...

Within a circled fairyring,
there you'll dance--
I'll clap and sing
stories told on harp and string
in harmonies the fairies bring.

May the moonbeams spark the leaves
a spotlight of our dance, reprieve.
Skyclad circles in the wood
together, as we knew we would.

I'll come again when you are gone
if only just to hum the song...
clasping knees in rock of tears
the memory of lack of fear
I'll keep the dirt you danced upon
each mote--a note of this night's song.

My feet won’t move to beats of drums and song,
I’ve sat without movement for much too long,
I’ll watch you sway in dance spirit divine
Perhaps to take your hand with in the mind.


interesting, are bringing this back to rework another version of it?
something for we, your fans, to look forward to?

Well, I would love to go out and dance in the night with you. But tell me, are the mosquitoes ever a problem?

Serenity~
I'm sure I heard crickets clicking cadence~

I love your 'chanting' rhymes~
This one has me headed for the bog of my Green Swamp~

I couldn't resist the title, and the poem more than lived up to it. I loved it. I'd go with you, if you could make it summertime again. It's a bit chilly out now for skyclad fun.
