“Feathers” – Poetry
Fairyland whispers Essence of faith Another time gently beckons The thoughts of Gods swiftly move Heaven’s answers, so elusive Eagerly awaiting response Requiring a leap of faith Signs that we are not alone Poetry Copyright © 2017 - 2023 by Ena Whiteraven All rights reserved. Photographer: unknown
“Demon Of Rage” – Poetry
The rushing waves of fury Broken hearts left in his wake That old deception endlessly beguiling the fool From the time of the first sun He has sown his bitter seed Recklessly clawing, boldly rampaging The paradise of innocent breed Now revealed to the few who gather The light shines boldly on his morbid throne… Continue reading “Demon Of Rage” – Poetry
