Led astray

In an unsettling

Woodland of

Parting reeds

Near thickets

Of wicker-worn

Pathways, a

Voiceless soul

Softly pleads.

Where paling

Green lights glow

And swell, floating

In young swaying

Postures of a

Songstress beside

The dell. Lightly

Leading footsteps

Into gothic

Marshlands of

Hailing hands,

Unearthing

Clawing nails

From lower

Lands. Enthralling

Well-trodden trails,

on to draining

Courage into

Droplets of

Waning life

Behind haunting

Veils. Glib eyes

Upon gusting

Gales whispering

To lure captive

Souls onto the

Distant dales,

Close to the

Hallows flooding

Silent lungs in the

Mist of emerald

Shallows.
