Here is my first poem in this Community. I hope you enjoy.
THE ANCIENT PLACE
Who goes there, in this dark place where you ought not to be?
You seek those that have yet to join us.
Have not your soul warned of such unrest?
Yet you pay no regard to.
Your mind and heart closed in pain to the knowledge
born unto you.
Find no rest among us, for we are not at rest.
Vigilant, remains those of us tasked with this burden.
Keepers of secrets, you now say in jest.
I say not.
Dare you mock the image of our plight.
Approach if your thirst,
for the unknown rouses
as the light of my breath
draws from the depth you know not of.
Gird up if you must,
Rest if your earthly hull demands,
for one day soon the torch you witnessed this night
will become your albratross.
Retreat from this place NOW, I say,
for you have been granted favor.
But take heed.
One day soon the call will come again.
No choice you will have but to accept the septre.
Released to the Keeper will you be.
Until then,
I wait.
Happy rest of the week everyone with whatever your endeavors.
