Devoted heart, southerly breeze
beautiful dryad, spiritual lady
nestled within sturdy oak tree
cascading locks, twigs & bark
guardian of whispering woods
mythical being,
songs of the lark
lovers composing poetry light on feet
wings of wild passion, urgent flight
leaves offer shade, cooling rising heat
human desire embracing natural world
entwined limbs reaching heavenward
soft petals flowers of love gently unfurl

ReplyDeleteI do love trees they are very symbolic and full of mystery.
DeleteI love the thought of those dryads.. I think we have a special connection to trees... As humans we need to be close to trees,
ReplyDeleteThat is very true perhaps, they make us feel grounded.

Deleteintertwined within a tree
ReplyDeleteOr beneath as two sway with glee
Can't get better than that
A dryad might scare the cat lol
intertwined within a tree
Deletecould be a nice place to be
but, might make the cat flee
and go on a rhyming spree
This don't have no relation to my lawn does it? :)

ReplyDeleteThanks Claudia, I was thinking of tree people after I had a dream so I wanted to honor the dryad in some manner.
DeleteThere is something very magical and majestic about trees--spanning as they do from the earth to the sky. A perfect place for your spirits to inhabit. Very nice work.

Hi Steve,
DeleteYes, trees are magical as they send their gentle messages in the breeze.
Agree with Steve. I found this magical and perhaps just through my filter, it seemed quite Southern - I remembered the woods up the Appalachian trail where the deciduous blend with conifers and the thick layers of leaves beneath all year long lend a cushion of magic to the creatures and secrets that dwell there.
ReplyDeleteHi,
DeleteI was dreaming of warmer days as I live in the north but, I have felt the magic in the woods as if the trees were speaking directly to me. Thank you for your lovely comment.
Lovely image and words. I love trees of all shapes and sizes!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting..one has to love the trees..
DeleteBeautiful imagery... and I loved the words you used to create the image of a dryad. Wonderfully done.
ReplyDelete-HA
Thank you HA nice of you to read this one..
Delete..lovely... dryads, pixies, nymphs, fauns----they're all a constant favourite muse to me.... funny, sometimes i do think i can speak with 'em as i hear 'em & (sometimes) see unexpectedly in times i am alone... or maybe i'm just too imaginative or rather weird eh? haha... i enjoyed this... Smiles...
