So long

 It seems I really have run out of rhoetry.  The book is more than double the size of the last one sent.  I keep trying but it seems I've run out of steam ... and heart, maybe.


I did make on last attempt...


Mists

Beyond the vague concealing mists

Hidden by the tale of twists

Behind the veil of waterfall

Remains the clear and steady gaze

Unbent, at last, and standing tall

Fresh from charge of demon's raze

Shedding armour, once and for all

Undisguised, attractions fell

Finally, no tale to tell

Still, the urge to craft it bright

Replace the armour with the light

More enduring than the steel

Shattered stain glass, by the feel

Wrest the demons from your fate

Trample them, in light ablate

It's funny, that, the unwrit tale

The devastating one, I fail

The clatter of the armour as it falls

Sigh, within my hardened bones, it calls

Transcribing all the legends of the past

Still, one spell remains that has been cast

No desire to let the spell abate

I nurture it, the end result of fate


So, maybe, it's just creaky machinery due to disuse but, still, I have no desire to post (or be) online any longer. I am uncertain as to whether filling a book that will never be published, or sent again, would be engaging.
