A Poem for Thursday





Did Lewis walk these woods?
And with his brother, once
Play hide and seek
On  a warm summer afternoon?

And did he get the idea for Narnia
As he followed these paths...
And did he see 
The same light come?

Over the hill
Beyond the ferns
Was Aslan rejoicing 
Dancing with the trees?

I hope he smiled
I smiled.

dVerse have a challenge as well...sprung rhythm...4 or 5 feet per line with the beat at the first ...so maybe this will make it!

This wood is in the County of Down and is just behind the town where C.S.Lewis was born. it's an ancient wood and quite mystical.....Wonderful!

A Poem for Thursday.



She's Nowhere.




To travel is to be nowhere.
You’re not here
And you’re not there.

So,
If you get the wrong train to somewhere,
Or you get off at
The wrong station for somewhere,
Does that mean
That you have completely disappeared?

And when the train gets to somewhere
Will they find that you are nowhere?

And how will you get back from there?



 
Yes...yes ...I did this..I own up! and the top pic is of me nowhere.
But the bottom is of the old steam train that takes you up the west coast to the borderlands of Scotland...exciting stuff!
