(no subject)

Autumn touched the land, and the canopy overhead had burst forth into a song of color, now hidden in the shadows cast by the moon. I stood on the cliff at the edge of the island overlooking the ocean. I had never sailed upon it. There was no boat. The moonlight danced a path across the water, and beckoned me to walk to the Far Land where the sky touched the sea, reflecting the path of stars overhead.

Beautiful words

Very lovely way that you have with words. It leads the mind to picture the scene and enjoy it as you did.

I was looking for an actual picture of this scene and couldn't find one. I found a lot of oceans with moonlight paths on them, and a lot of night woods scenes, and a lot of cliffs - but I could not find one with all of these elements together. Finally I decided to use words - and it worked (yay!)

Yay for you and you did so well.

Yay for you and you did so well. It may have been a memory from a past life that you saw in your minds eye.

I should probably add that I have only seen this with my inner eyes - I never actually stood on this cliff and looked out over the ocean with a Forest behind me in Autumn. I wish I had, though. It kind of reminds me of this poem:

It has the same feel - only that may be on the other side of the body of water with the moonlit path.
