Life woven together intrinically
with indelible ink that may fade
with time but not alter the
unalterable truth of those we
connect to as families of origin
with ties that bind over time

Holding the Book of Magic in
your hands you are transported
to those far and distant lands
where your domain beneath trees
is a forest quest at your command
Richly dressed in jaded green a
garment fine red with crimson
satin sheen holding court nigh
as the Fairy Queen a crown of
poinsettia atop garlanded hair
Hovering ’round the air in your
splendid court you might oft see
miniature Phoenix wisely bred to
rise up and set you free as the
pages turn in the Book of Magic

Another submission to Poet’s United Poetry Pantry. The image totally captured my imagination.
