his magic hand
feels nothing but
time

creeping and reaching, dark, wild trees with their intertwining arms in fear of touching one another... CreepingElm

there's a gleam in the gloom, there is a light in the sky

ps am i dreaming?

our sun. our moon.

ps learn how to fall through the sky.

dreaming of days that are dead

riches of love untold wakening the day from black to gold...

screams heard... are the ravens asking for me to scream in return?

ps standing under the trees filled with screaming black ravens yesterday made me get the chills.... halloween where are you?
ps ps i counted 51 ravens.... never have i seen this many here at one standing moment in time! with each scream they kept flying in for a landing to their selective branches.... amazing!
