another magpie

 while the rain
cascades cold and salt
we wait
there
a light
the smallest blink
a candle gutter
 tells us you are near
our journey
over centuries to this place
concludes.



my first effort for Magpie Tales, this picture just inspires

Nicely done word imagery ... our journey over centuries... loved that. And I also loved your sketch! How fun to show the page your ideas were born on.

Indeed, it's a very fine start. I like how you turn around the words and bring them to different place/meaning. Finishing with a verb is Clever.
