GRAND EPILOGUE  POEM I The night looked back at where we’d been, Through valleys dark and gardens green; Through haunted doors and nameless streams, By broken prayers and startled dreams. Each tale we walked, each fear we spoke— Was carried softly… by the silent ache. II It watched us search for who we are, In […]

PROLOGUE No wind, no star, no whispered tone  The world stood utterly alone; The mountains bowed, the oceans stilled, The forests waited, moonlight chilled. A breathless hush embraced the deep, As if creation dared not speak. ⸻ POEM I The fields lay bare beneath the night, The rivers dimmed their silver light; The clouds hung […]

PROLOGUE Across a river dark and slow, There stood an arch of weathered stone; Moss had crept from seam to seam, Like memory crawling through a dream. It never spoke in boast or pride — Yet felt each soul that crossed its side. ⸻ POEM I A merchant hurried, purse in hand, His thoughts were […]

PROLOGUE A valley slept beneath the sky, Where mountains leaned like hearts nearby; The air was soft, yet strangely clear, As if it listened, ear to ear. No temple stood, no altar lain— And yet the ground remembered pain. ⸻ POEM I The shepherds spoke in simple words, Their dreams took flight with passing birds; […]

PROLOGUE Within a chamber cold and bare, A mirror waited, stripped and spare; No gilded frame, no silver gleam, Just silent glass — withheld of dream. It watched the world in patient grace, Yet chose no voice, and kept no face. ⸻ POEM I It once had shown, springtime’s bloom, The drifting light of summer […]

PROLOGUE Upon a hill of wind and stone, There stood a house that dreamed alone; Its windows watched the moonlit air, Yet none had crossed the threshold there.

PROLOGUE A silver thread through field and stone, It wandered softly, all alone; It kissed the reeds, it cooled the clay, Yet never knew from where its way Had first begun — nor where it ran, Nor what it was to be or plan. ⸻ POEM I The river wound through forests deep, Where roots […]

PROLOGUE The sun sank slow yet never rose, The hours forgot the path of day; A hush like unconfessed repose Lay heavy on the silent clay. And somewhere in the darkened air, A question knelt beside a prayer. ⸻ POEM I The night arrived and would not leave, It folded roofs and fields in shade; […]

PROLOGUE At dawn the hills were gone from sight, Erased by one pale drifting sheet; The world grew softer, drained of light, And vanished slowly, street by street. Silence leaned forward, faintly stirred— As though it strained to hear a word. ⸻ POEM I The fog came down with whispered lies, It wrapped branches, veiled […]

PROLOGUE The clouds returned like weary friends, Their silver bellies bruised and torn; They promised cleansing, promised ends, Promised the greening of the morn. Yet silence felt a secret ache— As though the sky itself might break. ⸻ POEM I The rain began with tender grace, It tapped on leaves with lullaby; It stroked the […]
