My Future

By. Lauren Murphy

I bow before him, trembling, terror racing through me

Turning the liquid in my veins into cold blue ice

Frozen, head low touching the ground heated by the red-orange

Flames leaping off his smoldering heated breath

I dare take a glance into cool gray eyes, receiving a frost biting blast

For my troubles, captivated I can't bare to part gazes

With this powerful creature, in wolf form, enticing as he is deadly,

Tail of a serpent following behind as he begins to pass

Back and forth as the four times ten Legions of spirits

He is lord over wait in strained silence as he considers my request

Finally he comes to a slow pause in front of me

And with a great howl the fur covering his massive body

Dissipates his body straitening standing tall

His muscled form magnificent and on his broad muscular shoulders

The head of raven, he places his hands at the side of my face

And begins to gaze into my eyes, suddenly falling

Into a pitch black pit of oblivion I land hard

Abruptly in a sunny field of flowers.

He gracefully nods his dark feathered head

Toward the small wood cottage across the wildly growing fields

A young woman stands on the front porch,

Lovingly rubbing her rounded belly, glowing with a knowing smile, content.

He grabs my hand, pulling me away, interrupting my thoughts,

I gaze in to his eyes and realize that our journey has ended

My request granted, he has shown me what I wished to see...my destiny.
