Y Wyllt
Book 1. CyledrChapter one Cyledr awoke with a start, his hair and forehead drenched with sweat. The dream haunted him for months, and no amount of spiced wine could ward it off. He tried rising up, but his body felt numb and strangely uncontrolled, as if he were a children’s toy, bound to obey theContinue reading “Y Wyllt”
Does it…?
Does it ever stop –The longing?Dreaming in the night? Does it ever stop-BelievingIn the cloudless sky?.. Does it ever stop-The hopingFor the better days? Does it ever stop-Not stoppingWishing to remain?.. Does it ever stop-I wonder –Praying to be heard? Does it ever stop-Not leavingIn the face of wars?.. Bards will sing,And songs will riseContinue reading “Does it…?”
Fionn’s song
You cannot survive in a field of thorns, being a dandelion.You have to become a thorn. You cannot survive in a field of thistles, being a rose.You have to become a thistle. You cannot survive in a joust, being a damsel in distress.You have to become an armored knight. You cannot survive among the swordsContinue reading “Fionn’s song”

Forward to time-pastWhere pain’s no more.Forward to time-pastAs once before. Gliding through vines,I’m on my way.Gliding through vines,Soon I’ll be there. Pathways unwindingSilken threadsPathways unwindingJourney spreads. Carrying onwardsThrough the mistCarrying onwardsTo the feast. There by the waterLies the wayThere by the waterFind me there. Spring is awakened-Light to lightSpring is awakened:No more night. Follow theContinue reading “Forward to time-past”
Yggdrasil
I move through the mistAs if through the veilOf gossamer silk. It swirls around meIn greyish silverAnd diamond white. I hear the songsFrom long agoThat are no more. Feather-light fingersTouch my handsInvisibly, softly. I close my eyesAnd surrenderTo vanish. The voices beckonIn tongues of oldIn words unheard before. The air fills with scentOf memoriesThat areContinue reading “Yggdrasil”

By the waters of the Wyrd
The truth is never obvious,It hides deep down,In the dark of the well,In the cold watersOf the Wyrd. The truth is never bright,Not from the start-It lurks down below,In the cold watersOf the Wyrd. The truth is never sweet,It is bitter as yew,Stinging as holly,Poison is holdsAs the mistletoe. So spoke the All-FatherAnd the mightyContinue reading “By the waters of the Wyrd”
Water prayer
Where the waters flow,My heart is.Drifting on the waves,Asleep,I.follow the voice of the sea. Where the blues become greys,To change into silver,Merging into golden green,There the voiceIs the loudest. Where the shallow becomes deep,I become oneWith the water,Vanishing in its embrace,Floating underneath. Where the greens turn brown,To reflect the lightJust to take it in,I comeContinue reading “Water prayer”
