The Fire Shadows - One Single Impression #77 (Copse)

Figures dancing in front of the fire
the shadows fall and collide on the trees

the copse itself - now seems breathing
white cloaked figure in the darkness sees

sadness grows deep within us
the ancient grove in a dire way

old trees dance in the fire shadows
close your eyes and feel them sway

the leaves whisper a tale of anguish
quiet your thoughts - discern the sound

senses reeling with new found knowledge
seek the wisdom on forgotten ground
