Faery Bridges

Silken-stranded links in the arboreal world,
Warmed by the touches of liquid gold,
Filtering through the branches
In the early morning�

Shimmering steps along the bridges, silver-pearled
Dew-drops tremble, then, losing their hold,
Falling through the branches,
Hear the faeries� warning�

Sylphine whispers in the Elysium, unfurled
Promises of stories yet untold,
Floating through the breezes
Of a new day, dawning�

(Helena C.Cook, October 2000)
Winter...

Frozen northern moors
Unchanged, in isolation
Wait for warming sun...

Icicles transform
Branches of a frosted tree
promising things to come...
