This is the end?

 

 

This is the end of the road

where do we go from here?

 

I send my greetings to the road

than once upon a time

gave me something

 

This is the end of the road

where do I go from here?

 

The path that I once chosen

was steep and filled with thorns

My feets are bleeding now

My heart is still pumping

renewing the blood lost

 

A white wolf approaches me

and licks my wounds

 

- Where do we go now?

I ask the wolf. . .

 

- The roads you've taken

had lead you far and near

Close your eyes and remember

whom did you met in your journey?

 

 

- I met a child, a hawk, an owl, a young lady,

 an old woman, an alien and then you white wolf

 

- Open your eyes now, the white wolf whispered

what do you see?

 

- I see a golden stairway that leads me to the sky

 

the white wolf smiles at me and tells me

- look who is waiting for you, as he slowly fades away

 

the white peacock shows it's tail

messenger of the ancient spirits
and tells me:

 

- The  bounty of nature's gifts

Unity of heaven and earth

was given  to you for a purpose

find the answer. . . close your eyes and sleep. . .

~¤~the unity of symbolism
into nature's perfection~¤~

a dream-like, peaceful feel to this... feels like an adventure, like the road of life... to every question there's an answer, every path leads to deeper understanding in the end... this is how i perceive the meaning of your words here... wonderful imagery for my mind this morning... as always, a pleasure to read your work... :) *hug* xx

I love this story you told. It is a tale of a spirtual journey. I love the symbolism throughout. I believe there is no end, just new paths.
