NIMUE ( the pool)

 Nimue,

Are you there?

Are you keeping your secrets ?

Guardian of the pool

Conductor of fools,


Protector of the waters,

Let me throw you my sword

Along with memories 

Gathered with cobwebs

On life’s journey


Deja vu visits 

As I wander through verdant fields 

Feet in a babbling brook,

Castle walls calm and gnarled from the fight.

Fade with grandeur into the night.


Nimue are you there?

Can you hear me ?

Reveal to me your beauty,

Reveal to me your wisdom


A thousand years you’ve slept

Watching over the dawns

Conjuring the mist from the mirror

Illusory form of the deep.


Excalibur I return to you

I have no use for it now,

Take it before I plunge it to my heart 

I have held it high

Dulled the blade in many fight


Nimue, please wake,

My tears mix with the waters 

Raise your hand like you have before

Catch what I throw

Keep it safe for others

For I must go.
