* double etheree *

The moon hardly pierces the winter clouds. Afar, a solitary wolf howls. The girl sits on the Glum-Glade swing. The pain of her claws growing and the frost made her wince. Still one rocking and she will become the raven ready to fly and spread the seeds of malediction. Cursed are those who have discovered her secret. It is dangerous to spy on a sorceress in the woods. Afar, a solitary wolf dies. And the moon weeps behind the frigid fog.

Intriguing piece. Trembles with fear and foreboding. Thanks, Gershon
