following stones

wayfinding the fair
following the blood she
leaves for dolmen stones
to mark her where
for come november
when lovers lie claimed
entwined in her river flow
'til whispers call to wander
the burning fields won
under the forests below

      Thank you Mae. In a way, that’s something along the lines of what I was hoping it would evoke.
