Magpie Tales: Snail

From Magpie Tales

It carries on its back the whorls,
the hopes of gamblers tossing dice,
hidden inside an enigma of chance. 

Dainty steps climb the ladder of the universe
moving outward and inward, closing in on itself.
A circle never finding its end.

Mapie Tales: Alight

from Magpie Tales

Alight
Training on man made tracks
I head for the light at the beginning of the tunnel
Hoping I will come out intact, whole,
A strong warrior of my kind.
Striding the land in confidence,
I am assured to prevail.
The dawn tells me so.
