The Guardian Speaks

By WolfsWhisper

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Wandering through the forest,Searching for a path.Softly crunching over leaves,Listen to the wind as it whispers in the trees.Sunlight filters down,Splayed in patches here and there.Casting shadows all around.Continue hiking not knowing where to go.I hear voices,Echoing noises and I slow.Glance at the ground, left and right,Finally look up.Woodland faeries gathered in the tree tops.Sense a presence near behind me,Breathing heavy then I stop.Whirl to look at the face,To see who drew me to this place.Nothing but thick air,Something lightly caresses my hair.Frozen still,Spine tingling chill.Familiar scent hangs in the air.'Who did that? Is anybody there?'Warm moist breath gently moves into my ear,It is I, he speaks,I the one who cares.'Do I know you? From where have you come?'From you future, from you past,From the present now.As to the other, I suppose you do,For we were together me and you and we shall be again.'Yes, but what is it that has brought you here?'Why, of course, you have, my dear.The men are on the move.'The men you don't mean....''How can that be? I thought that they were dead.'I'm so sorry, he says as he kisses my head,They have arisen again.Scenes and images flash,I feel a sickening sense of dread.I am here for you,To guide you protect you in all that you do.Have faith in me, love, for I always speak true.'Please tell me, m'lord, are they near?'Worry not, m'lady, set aside that fear.He wipes away my crystalline tear,I will keep watch, for my eyesight is clear.I love you, my sweet, but it is time that I part,Whenever you need me look deep in your heart.He opens my hand and drops in a shimmering key.Just call out my name,I shall answer your plea.A light mist moves a flash he's gone.Standing on the path with the shadows,Shaking my head listening to the wind blow.Heading back,Sun setting sky deep.For thanks to him,I can reach the secrets I keep.A sequel to Journey Through the Inside(ticket home) Written January 10th, 2002 © on Jan 10 2002 03:06 PM PST, Allison Nolen   18 • 0 • 13
