A tragic love song I wrote, Footprints In The Snow.


I followed the footprints in the snow
they led me to you

I went to meet you my dear
in the alder brook as planned
I met instead the enemy
they encircled me
they drew their swords
As I lay in the snow
covered in blood frost
I only think of you my dear

What could have been if we had met tonight?
My true love
I am forever yours

As I lay here
Beside my lover
A raven comes to me
with a message
that I must flee to the mountains
All my hopes and dreams have faded away from me
in this dark night I cry out for you my love

As he lays in the snow
covered in blood frost
he only thinks of me his love

What could have been if we had met tonight?
My true love
I am forever yours

Don't look back my love
the future is bright for you
vengeance leads to death
we shall meet again my dear
Flee the hinterlands
A fortress awaits you

I entrust my heart to you
I will flee to the mountain fortress
where i will await eternity with you

Her Portrait

In a chamber suffused with emotion

By the light of innumerable dawns,

In a house betwixt forests and ocean,

Where the briar rose bristles with thorns;

There hangs her portrait in splendour,

In mystic silence, forsaken, unknown,

In lines both violent and tender

And colours of thunderous tone.

Her eyes bespeak wisdom and knowing,

Her face; enigmatic and ever serene

With tresses luxuriant, flowing

To realms of delight yet unseen.

She is lissome of line, at times seeming

To move with the heart of the storm.

In turn, she seems tranquilly dreaming;

Creating visions of exquisite form.

Her goddess soul demands adoration,

She is a daughter of tempest and night,

Of desire - the last incarnation,

A creature of ethereal light.

Ceaseless and boundless her passion;

Kindler of unquenchable fire,

Nude in the fearless old fashion,

Wellspring of lust and desire!

Ellethwyn, excellent poem. I'm sorry, I posted one of mine straight after yours. I was going to leave you a comment, but I forgot - this isn't FaceBook. Well done, a very nicely written piece. Let's encourage more of the members to post. Her Portrait is inspired by a (2010) painting that I own by contemporary British artist Lucinda Lyons - a beautiful and provocative work.

Thank you, Stormbringer!

Your poem is beautiful and paints an amazing picture in my mind, i love it!

I searched for the piece you wrote about, but am not sure which one it is.

Many thanks Ellethwyn. Quite a bit of Lucinda's work is on the net but she has painted and drawn a lot. The painting I bought is called 'Rose'. You can check out some of her work here :
