This is from a challenge phrase by SEA. I've written before of the 'Immortal Clan' a band of immortal women who have children with mortal men, then must kill them (like a black widow spider). In my poems, the mortals hunt the Immortal women - as no man can resist their tempting beauty. Mystic Moons, guide my way Tara, child of Immortal clan gained full her seven years smiles for all, this red-haired child rarely succumbed to childish tears A secret game of hide and seek only played by mortal kin though hidden now, Tara found a lesson learned for her sin Lost within the forest deep fear her guide this night she kept a silent vow that she would show no childish fright Immortal girls are early taught the ways of clannish lore mortal man will hunt them down to even ancient score So she began her childish chant “Mystic Moons, guide my way keep me safe Immortal Ones to live another day” As dawn’s first rays embraced Immortal child’s fiery head Tara found her safe haven and victory from her dread |

I like this very much, it has a very interesting theme, very unusual. "When red-haired girls scamper like roses over the rain-green grass, and the sun drips honey." Laurie Lee |
