Secret Spinner- M.E. InkOwl
Wrapped in time upon a mountain’s ledge, Buried deep between evergreen leaves, And covered in a summer’s rain, A secret was spun. Delicate as a spider’s web drifting upon the wind, It settled itself there upon a path, Waiting for my wandering soul to find, A tale began to grow. Undone was the passion so … Continue reading Secret Spinner- M.E. InkOwl
