Nightly Celebration

Folder: 
Darkside

Walking through forest

I know I am home

Night as fallen over me

Now I am not alone

She has laid out her hand

And embraced me tenderly

The animals all give praise

I have come back safely

My brothers and sisters

Gather to my side

Exchanging hugs and kisses

I'm now with my kind

I tell of my travels

And what I have seen

I tell of my visions

All of my dreams

Food is circled

With song and dance

Children laugh and play

I'm here with lively friends

So soon the celebrations end

It is time to sleep

As I lay down my head upon my alter bed

One thought I keep

Someone was missing

Someone dear

Waiting with patience

Hope is clear

Sleep...

This poem has an air of mystery that cannot be penetrated fully. I am curious as to the backstory behind this poem, but, whatever that backstory may be, the poem has quite an effect!
