Crimsons Creative Challenge #279 #Tourney at the magic cottage

 

O’er hill and dale, from forests green

came fairies , denizens of dreams

for as was the custom in this land

a trial was set to claim the hand

of the fair and beautiful Trixie,

daughter of the King of pixies

From northern lands came Knghts and Lords,

all were armed with lance or sword

warrior magicians, heroes, clerics,

and dark skinned Sheikhs and mystics

their swords and scimitars made of gold

eager to claim this prize foretold

in legends and their country’s fables

discussed at length o’er dining tables

in an enchanted forest this cottage stands

invisible to any mortal man

but if somehow this house be seen

t’would appear nought but a dream

Ronovan writes #Decima prompt challenge #82 The treasure seekers

As they started poking around

they found a bone covered in slime

that had been there for a long time

so decided they should dig down

and see what else was in the ground

the story goes or so I’m told

it seems it started to grow cold

this they found to be quite eerie

by now they were getting weary

and all were lost as was the gold

Ronovan writes #Decima prompt #77 Night sky wonders

I looked up to the skies last night

and marvelled at the starry scene

but knowing much was left unseen

for if the moon is shining bright

small things are hidden from our sight

when in the moon’s reflected glow

they do seem reluctant to show

being so naturally shy

they easily avoid our eye

standing in wonder far below

In the dark, cold night

we witness the Northern lights

with eyes of a child

Just one sign of life

answers an age old question

yet gains us nothing

Samiscribbles weekend writing prompt #213

And so I am released from my Solar tethers. From this point the world is my oyster although in this case it should read either worlds or eventually galaxy. For I am Voyager two, a small but very significant part of mankind’s plan for an answer to the second most fundamental question. For forty-five years I have been exploring and reporting on the furthest reaches of our close solar system but now I am finally released from programmed paths and orbits. My debt is paid and my solo quest begins. Wish me luck.

Across western skies

see Hyperion drive his

chariot

in splendour

expelling Luna’s , shaded

icy grip.

Not just Svarovski

chemical beauty

Pumpkins and candles

coax loud screams from the children

on Eve of all Hallows

From stagnant waters

tendrils of vapour carry

the howl of the loon
