Write a story set on this misty path.

Write a story set on this misty path.

Mist

Counting steps in my head


Is this all I get before I’m dead, before I


Quick


Think of something new


Thoughts we could all agree on


Just you and me


Great green pastures we on


Silk


Pretty day that we got


For ourselves



Mornings are coming


The heat will arise


Weeds to our thighs


Make me itchy from inside



Mist, mind is see through


I hear your thoughts, thought i knew you

Path To Peace

I open my eyes to a misty walkway in a grassy field covered in fog.

“I hope the passing was peaceful.” A gruff voice whispers next to me and I jump to look at them. It’s a young man, no older than 24, in a light grey tshirt and black jeans; but there is something about his eyes that gives me a moment of pause.

“Who are you and where am I exactly?” I ask as I take in the rest of my surroundings. ...

Every Day is a Winding Road

It always started the same way. A white, dusty tendril from an old elm tree creeping into town. That’s when you knew they were coming. We had heard the anxious whisperings of such an occurance three towns over. It didn’t end well
 it never does.


The town elders had already shut themselves into an old, rusty horse barn. Intent on devising a plan and desperate to provide hope. Everyone else t...

This Path

I’m on this path alone, how I like to be

Although, I honestly would like some company

Nobody bothers me out here— it’s peaceful

I don’t have to deal with hatred, strife, and wars, and others being deceitful

A place without any of that seems unbelievable

It’s unfortunate that’s the world we live in nowadays

This path is cool,I know, lo sé, chévere,

Maybe I’ll return to this path another day...

forgotten

My footsteps are silenced by the weeds poking through the damp path. My breaths are visible in the cold morning air, a veil of silence between me and the rest of the world. Walking down this path, wiping my clammy hands on the front of my tee shirt. All but remind me of my past and my could-have-been’s. The significance of this path is invisible, but it’s the lighthouse that guides me to work each...

Healed By Dew

On this path of mist and dew.

Walking barefoot home anew.

It’s cold. I’m cold.

But-I’m bold,

So I walk home,

In the mist- alone.

Healed by dew.

Clear site in the mist....

Where The Fog Settles

Rowan walked along the path carrying the bounty of her morning forage in her satchel. Her mind flashed back to images of her childhood, her long white-blonde hair braided tightly as she studied each of the herbs she held close to her side today, the same one’s her mother had once placed delicately in her small palm: yarrow, for healing, mugwort, for dreams, and a sprig of elderflower she had stash...
