Idol Survivor: "Where Once The Sky"

Where Once The Sky
idol survivor | daily-fic challenge, day 7

~ * ~ * ~ * ~

An empty blackness
stills the earth
where once the sky
held stars,
and brought the moon
to stir our dreams.

The darkness
is a plague
of dread, of doubt,
the truth behind it
all obscured.

What is now lost,
and what forgotten?

We gaze and search,
and we wish
for simpler times,
for astral patterns
spilling forth

How might the seeker
become the seer?

We would welcome
answers, omens,
if only we could,
if only the questions
had not finally
grown too vast.

I absolutely adore this!

"An empty blackness
stills the earth
where once the sky
held stars,
and brought the moon
to stir our dreams."

And this,

"How might the seeker
become the seer?"

And the rest is beautiful, too. <3

See you Sunday evening!

Thank you so much, M! I'm glas this spoke to you!

It can't be sundown yet. Just too much to do until then?

[murielle]

Not yet. I have about four hours and I'm almost finished. Just a few more chores and it's done! And, for the first time since I started keeping Passover and Unleavened Bread I've actually managed to do more of the physical prep. It feels so good! <3

Blessings to you and yours! *Hugs*
