Stairway Up
Fog enchanted stairway up
Leading from pale forest floor
Reaching dark heights never seen
Powerful feelings arise
Putting my heart into depths
Unknown this forest it dwells
Closure seems to ride around
Circulates an ending sure
Divine feel about the stairs
So mysterious I’m lost
Unknown maker produced it
Latent power in its steps
I drift off, listless casting
My mind, staying away cold
Not knowing whether to climb
Or risk staying in forest
Russell Sivey
