Distant Destiny!



Slithering around in the dark shadow of the lonely forest,
Devoid of Sun warmth, devoid of anything divine
Felt Entangled in existing shackles in an ambience of gloom
Does here lies Satan’s demented soldier; or resides harbinger of doom

Marching ahead feeling restless and helpless, searching a path of truce
The end almost unknown to me , Was I destined to end up in a noose
But faith has something else in my share,
Mother nature did the save , a sight so serene and so fair

Fear can sheath the quill, but prayer always weaves another will
an amber cloaking the morning dew, Valhalla will even steal this hue
Mine, yours, free falling, zero gravity dreams
Can never show you a so limpid river glideth, and wooden bridge gleam

Green algae and cobble stone, Icing earth in joy, in woe
Like those calm water running under and wetting the wooden piers
Some lonely verses are inked in lonely tears
No matter what you find, Natural Beauty is climate of mind

I would cherish this day, free from strife and be away
I rest here tonight, tomorrow once again lost in my way
Leaving my heart in the sand of time doth play, keep on looking back
Waiting for familiar resurgence,  to wash the shadow of my past 



P.S - Poem based on the above photo prompt !
