MYSTICAL LADY

Author: Redex

I felt her
in front of me
tiptoeing

through the trees
the breeze lifts the
leaves

ever so gently
her shoes make no
sound

on the ground
indentations flatten the
grass

so I know
she is not a
figment

of my mind
she feels gentle and
kind

mindful of the
path we walk
talking

is out of
the question
silence

gently touches the air
despair i now
feel

vibrating from her
crossroads we then
reach

inpressions of a finger
pointing
left

she goes right
into the damp
mist

forty years have
passed and I
walk

the same path
this day
looking

for a hint
of her
image.

Very imaginative write! Read it several times, and each time the image was more and more vivid. I viewed it as your Muse making it so that once forty years ago she presented herself to you through the sensation of her presence, indentations on grass, her gentleness and kindness, despair vibrating from her. There on the crossroads she then disappeared into the mist giving you a hint of your personal calling - a written word, poetry - and having thus completed her mission. Search for a hint of her image may be the backing and comfort from your Muse that you are looking for. Very interesting, congratulations, dear poetess, and thanks for sharing!
