Description I sought pathways remembered
of old, Thin Places
where I had encountered
and been acknowledged
by illuminating
Spirit, embracing who
I am, dancing with all
I was becoming.

Now I find that Powers
and Authorities have
been busy: barricading,
assembling, Thickening,
working to silence
haunted whispers, block
ethereal flow.

Yet Remnants linger:
hints of glory that was,
that again will be.
Merlin's call, Tennyson's
verse urge me onward:
"Follow the Gleam."  I glimpse
streams of color and light
revealing hidden
contours, magic etched
into fabric of all
that is.

Thank you!  Since Tennyson wrote an entire poem about "The Gleam," I think we're in good company!

My dad took me to his old college, I hope he gets inspired to do something as well!

You're welcome! The college had a lot of stairs, I got tired easily.

I had to climb a lot of stairs when I was a student; all of my professors had their offices on the 7th floor of one of the biggest buildings at the university, and students were only allowed limited access to the elevator.

That's actually pretty sad.
