The Dreamer by Luxis

Merit for May 2005

She shut her eyes and dreamt
of Water's fluid grace
of streams and ponds
of trilling brooks
and rainbowed falls

She slept away and dreamt
of Lady Riptide's face
of seas and storms
of sunken dreams
and ocean's breath

She closed the book and dreamt
of Death's cold embrace
of secrets and shades
of bewitching lies
and whispered threats

She fell at last and dreamt
of Lady Elohora's face
of life and love
of eternal peace
and compassion's touch
