Is it bad that my immediate thought was to leave a one-word comment:

Bitch!

But that's just the envy talking. This is absolutely stunning. Even better than your usual work.

These words stay,

not because of the vision itself,

but because of what it costs to carry it.

Sometimes what is seen is not rejected

because it is false,

but because it arrives too early

for those who must hear it.

Aye, true then and true now, we’re often not ready to hear the truth till it’s too late to heed its warning. Thank ye kindly for reading and leaving yer thoughts.✨🦋

It’s like LOTR says - truth becomes legend-legend myth-but in reality true finds its way again - it is always scoffed at until there is unquestioned proof - then there has to be humility —— well done!!!!

I definitely saw a woman in a nightgown out in a field with a cauldron with wind blowing her hair starbound, towers set with intention, circle bound with purpose. Hail to the towers of the east, south, west, and north.

Verdant Butterfly's avatar

The rhythm, the narration - it's music to my ears 😍 this is superb! In awe and so envious just like the rest who have left their comments here 🙌🏻👏🏻

Verdant Butterfly's avatar

thank ye kindly, when a ballad style gets rolling they do have a rhythm that flows. Some of the rhymes gave me a bit of trouble yesterday but im stubborn and it paid off, I'm rather proud of this one. thank ye kindly for taking a moment to comment and let me know you enjoyed it . ✨🦋

One can tell the editing would have taken ages, making things fall in rhythm and have a tight storyline is so tough! Kudos! 👏🏻
