Invocation

The waitress brings us
Tea and cake
We have been on an adventure
And are hungry and tired
Craving our bed 
And sugary sleep
The waitress doesn't have a name
Not like Hatter
She must in real life
We whisper 
When she has left our table 
Today like a cat chasing a mouse
We ran into the field
And on to the forest
We could feel the power
Of the trees 
For a moment it left us in a fluster
But we spied our deer
And learnt to be still again 
We sat 
Took a rest
Like sitting on nature's porch 
We summoned up
An invocation
Please keep us safe
That we have made it
To the end of another day
Seems magical
We finish up 
Our tea and cake
Slowly walk back to the room
At least we left
If only for a moment.

  1. This is very beautiful. I love that your peace and safety lay in the forest. Mine too. And love the deer encounter that reminded you to be still. Deer are such lovely peaceful beings. I once stood so close to a group of them and peace emanated from them. They stood and gazed back, not alarmed at all.
