Tales

 


in tell of tales, with nuance of voice


ghosts rise within campfires smoke


circling, hiding in the shadows


to prey on imagination, and fears


born in childhood mysteries,


where truth is filtered by dreams


and life still lives in its unfurled cocoon


where youthful innocence silences doubts


where age is a gift to be explored, not lamented


and monsters live in frightened smiles


to be vanquished by laughter and friends delight

 

in telling of tales neath moons soft light
