Dawn Rebirth

by ~JS-13

The blood dryad sits huddled against the Shadows
Her iridescent wings changing colour in flickering fire light
Purple then blue, colours merge and separate in tides
Married in flame
She sits in the ruins, holding her child
Around her are the skeletal remains of her homeland
Burning earth where once there was forest
And life.
Echoes of torment, the cries and growls
Of the Nightbeasts surround her.
Clutching her infant she swears
An oath to the cradle
That she would turn this darkness
Into a living ground for her child,
To chase away the Nightbeasts
And return beauty to her world.
She will do this all to keep her child safe.
The Nightbeasts draw nearer.
She holds her child closer
To protect her until

The sun casts its first rays over the horizon.
Fire illuminates with cold light
Contrasted to the gray earth.

She sees the potential for life once more and
Her child awakens to the new dawn.
A chance for rebirth after the long night
Eternity in a heartbeat, the future in sight

My first dedicated poem for a very long time. I decided to write it after reading a note a friend of mine wrote, declaring an intention to change how she was living for the benefit of her daughter.

This one's for you Meg! Hope you like it! :) Took me long enough to finish.

:D amazing. makes me wish, at the same time, tht i did and didn't have a mother like this. did because she is willing to bring out everything she has to create a stable place for her child, and to bring a new hope to her life. didn't because i know that there would be sacrifices of immense greatness on both parts. the child would be raised aware of everything, to be strong at all times, never to show fear. the mother would have to become tougher, stronger, to protect and to guide watevr. i may be completely wrong, but this is wat i will take from this, incorrect or not.

Thank you very much. :) I'm really glad that my poem touched you. And you are absolutely spot on with the intended meaning. It was dedicated to a good friend who was going through a tough spot...

Sex with chickens is wrong.

That's the general idea.

^^ i hav a friend (my age x]) tht jst wnt through a bad time, nd is still somewat going through it. but she's the reason i get to go to this school i want to next year, cuz she'll still b at my old school, nd my moms only letting me go cuz she won't b there. my mom is being very racist lately, nd it really sux. she's being discriminative of all my friends while i'm rite there, nd whn a mother was being abused and her son was raised to thnk men were 'the most important,' which is incorrect, (no offense to u, cuz i dont thnk ur this way) thn they won't no any better. nd hav u evr known some1 who wouldn't stand up for their little brother, even if they didn't really like him, whn he was getting talked about in a bad way?

That sucks like mad! Why though? It's barbaric... I've never seen that ever happen. Little brothers are a pain, but they're still your flesh and blood! What's your mom's problem? Hell, she'd have a hard time here... And no worries, I understand. Men and women are equally opposite in my opinion.

yea. mom's just really stupid... she has this problem with understanding bad things that've happened to others, like she's blinded by her own past, and can't see that what she does is worse than what most others do.

Ah, I understand now... She can't accept that some people deal with problems in different ways, and expects everybody to conform to her idea of what's right.I see it a lot, particularly with staunch christians. Mostly the older generation, but it spreads down through the ages eventually. I'm sorry you have to put up with htat kind of person dail! Really, I think I would kill her.
