Her Favorite Haunt



In quiet, she slips from behind the trees
To skip and dance along the lanes so green,
Now see the points upon which she will swirl,
For she’s in tune with her shadows, serene.

As if with a brush, she dapples sunlight
To spread before grace, in time’s harmony,
Then if by some chance a footstep she hears,
She becomes once more, utter mystery.

But it is just I, a bard in pretend,
Still in search of my very own muse;
If I am silent, she might then return,
To lend lone pen melodious clues.

Haunt me again, oh, my muse of the lane;
Haunt me once more, for I would thus plead;
Haunt me again, oh, you lover of words,
That I lay down in your forest, my seeds.

Dapple me, Muse, with your brush beaming light ~
That I bequeath you words, by day or by night.

~*~

Photography, Courtesy, J.M.

Might I say that your muse is most welcome to come and haunt me at any time of the day ~ or night!

JM's photo was so inviting!

And when your muse is through haunting your path..
Please give her my address?!

Oh WOW, Karilea!  I have a haunt very similar to yours,  and I plead with my muse to share the beauty of this place.  I drive through this paradise often and breathe its beauty.  It has been nearly a year now since I found this place, and my muse has yet to cooperate.

Just lovely, my friend!

Karilea

You just have to know that I love this, right?  And JM...as always your photos are poems.  I am going to look more closely and see if I can find me one!
