Poetry is the soul singing of it's dreams and longings to all who read it's rhymes.
Well done, my fellow Elvenarans.

Ode to Elvenar
(From a battle weary Elf) Thank you Ophion for your beautiful poem you shared with us.
I slept last night upon a bed
of leaves and vines that furled,
and wound until they'd made a wall
to shield me from this world.
As intricate as winding dreams,
they wrapped me close to keep
the nightmares from invading
as I lay me down to sleep.
And in that wall, a door appeared
of bark and acorn shell
that opened onto sunlit fields
replete with asphodel,
that wavered in the breeze
as ghostly figures passed anon,
sweet smiling in their passing
into shadows and were gone.
And dark'ning skies exploded
into sparkling stars abright
with diamond haloes hov'ring
o'er angels wings in flight.
And peace became a blanket
floating gently from the skies,
enveloping humanity
and opening my eyes...
from where I lay upon a bed
of leaves and vines that furled...
and wound until they'd made a wall
to shield me from this world.
