More from *Vonsiel

An acquaintance of conducts“Are you lonely?”

Listless eyes of tainted remorse
Turned to view the unexpected source
Of voice not heard for many years,
Etched with kindness and no fears.

“Why would one such as yourself care to know?”

Gentle laughter, faint and fair,
Rang forth the curious, childish care,
Of only such a person he could deem
Unwise to not turn from he, frightful fiend.

“I only wish to keep you company.”

With tapered horns like kingly crown,
Visage brought forth an addled frown.
Dark gaze was returned with only bright
And laughter to which could light the night.

“You are foolish, little one. Do you not know
A reminder of stationsA woman stood on the shore of a beach, wild tresses flying in the salted winds,
and her eyes were filled with sorrow. The crashing waves rolled up to her feet,
while gulls cries soft their calls of lament.

A man of seasoned years walked gingerly along the wake, his steps carefully placed. His beard was white and long, accented by eyes gleaming with wisdom,
and his smile warmed the soul.

He approached the woman, eyes curious and filled with pity, and followed her gaze. The sea looked norm to him, the vast teal horizon shifting idly as it did. With a scratch of his head, he turned his eyes to the woman and said:

“Why are you so sa
The sands of time do slip awayGather about you young ones,
And keep quite those hastening tongues.
Heed the words they tell,
For those who have not fell,
Of nights blacker than some fading abyss,
And of days laced with eternity that time seemed amiss.
Before the stars shone frightened,
And  in days that the grasses were much enlightened.
When their skin seemed the porcelain glass
Like those painted China dolls dressed in regal wraps,
And garnet lips stood out for show,
Like blood upon soft powdered snow.
Retreat to your thoughts and relish in the times
When lakes shone such luxurious rhymes,
Mirroring the sun set skies in two,
So we were swimming amongs

I swear this is the same animal I drew once. A wolf head and body, bird wings, ram horns, serpent tail. Eerie similarity.
