Anonymous
Poetry Contest Description
write a poem about Mourganna (Le Fay)
The great MERLIN amongst poets, SOULADAREATEASE handed me the staff to continue the "DU MEMBER" thread.
Write about Mourganna, Le Fay. For personal details, read profilø, surprise me dear poets of Deep Underground....
Mourganna Le Fay
NORWEGIAN POETESS
There goes Le Fay of Norway
whom I had known first
as LizardQueen
commenting on my acrostic-tanka,
a nature lover just like me.
She likes my take on fairies
she maybe simple
but has a great heart.
Flora and fauna
she will protect—
a rebel with a good cause.
No living creature—
big or small
will she treat
without loving care,
for in her pagan belief
life is so sacred.
May you live
not to see the day:
the woods without trees,
the city without buildings
and the rivers without water…
because I would hate
to see you drown
in river of tears.

Imperfect Perfection
A starry-eyed visionary perplexed by complexity
in a world of pandemonium
she keeps things uncomplicated
finding solace in simplicity; her spirit’s freedom
Idolizing perfection is not her forte
for she knows we live in an faulty world
and she adores being gorgeously flawed
wearing life's blemishes, as secondary skin
Such beauty to her unorthodox reasoning
such uniqueness to her rebellious ways
optimism flowing so strongly within her,
that she exhale loving life….
so others can inhale, the true scent of living
I have witnessed compassion in her words
heard her heart’s song in poetic languages
felt love flowing through her verses,
becoming mesmerized by the perfection....
found in a perfectly-imperfect woman
~Oh to be the shadow of her exquisite image~

Rain, dear Poetess
I hardly know how to thank you for this poem.
Tussen Hjertlig Takk, as they say in Norwegian, means A thousand warm thanks yous
You captured me pretty well dear Lady

The Simple Complexity
"Norway" she said
when asked about life
and the optimistic heart
which is a lover's domain
and the key to the
imperfection that sets you
free to live the life a
natural pagan should live.
The solitary path you walk
is full of rebels looking to
belong with the highest cause
of self reflection but what must
you do to survive this negative
world who believes in fears and
self-limitations against a couragious
background of lies and discoveries.
Awaken! you proclaimed,
as you crossed the road into
a universe full of green trees
and here we are hoping to understand
your glory, fighting against the same
spear you fight nightly but this time
together we will declare victory.

The Mystic, The Cryptic~ Queen
While out in the wilds
of Her
expansive mind
I caught sight to the ever mile
where streams flow
endless
along golden fields
the crows do fly
needling their lip to the doves olive tip
as which way
they say
our lives may comb
there they shared
past and present
wrapped in paper
humming a tune
of inky black silk
soothing through
this
fettered rust that I felt
came a
calm ascension
flowing
on
to Baldur
while my eyes reached ever on
seeking
these winds swept me up
leaving me breathless
to haunt, to scour
every script
I
found
ever
so precious
These sparks lain gem
twinkling
in my eye
adds
much needed
joy to my life
dip the quill once more
Dear Queen
I'll be sure to read

Le Fay, I’m truly humbled and honor by your kind words but this win is so bittersweet for me. I must confess, I hate being the focus of attention, hence my little note; *this is not an entry* and the reason I haven’t enter many other DU members comps. Your spirit was too beautiful not to write about. Thank You! Congrats Lanooz and nice poems all around. Xo
