Enchantment

“Only those who truly love and who are truly strong can sustain their lives as a dream. You dwell in your own enchantment. Life throws stones at you, but your love and your dream change those stones into the flowers of discovery. Even if you lose, or are defeated by things, your triumph will always be exemplary. And if no one knows it, then there are places that do. People like you enrich the dreams of the worlds, and it is dreams that create history. People like you are unknowing transformers of things, protected by your own fairy-tale, by love.” – Ben Okri

Enchantment

 

The Leaves of a Messenger

Beauty,

Enchantment,

Love,

And fascination.

Modesty,

Or a heart felt confession.

Jealousy,

Grace,

Or infidelity.

All can be me,

Just ask which color and you will see

How I can change thy path

When the message is chosen,

And I am delivered  to the one thou hath.
