Labyrinth


This is the first esoteric, or even occult, poem I have written for an age.  I am rather pleased with the result.





Labyrinth  -  02 Apr 13


The labyrinth of the mind
Lies behind the secret doors
That hide the mysteries
In plain view

Wolf chants a lullaby
In ancient sacred words
Only the raven knows
The hidden meanings

Raven watches as we dance
The labyrinth and see
Vistas unfold to us
Circling ~ opening our minds

Wolf and raven leave a trail
Of words for us to follow
Beyond the labyrinth’s centre
Opens us to the mysteries





There may well be more of these poems somewhen soon.  Thank you Muse.

    1. After experiencing a Labyrinth workshop and walking a Labyrinth on several occasions over the two days, I can assure you that some interesting revelations are presented.
