A will-o'-wisp

Jack Cohen

A will-o'-wisp
Enticed my sight

As it swayed and danced
on the crossing heights

The ember world once sealed away
Returned this night under moonlit rays

The twilight veil that hides my eyes
shifts and writhes in shadow lies

But the wisp escaped
and now shines bright

A reminder of what lies
Hidden beyond sight

    'The ember world once sealed away
    Returned this night under moonlit rays

    The twilight veil that hides my eyes
    shifts and writhes in shadow lies'
    Brilliant!
    just love your word choices, so accessible
    yet jam packed
    with crisp, fantastical imagery
    pure poetic, wizardry!
    thank you, dear Poet
