Dream Quest

Tendrils grasp along the path
Snaring the unwary
Hawks hover overhead
Watching with unblinking eyes
Deep in the trees
The hornets tease
While the green underfoot
Is damp and drear
Not a sign exists to show
My love was ever here
The land stretches out in front of me
Offering no answers

Dream Quest 2

Spell bound
Dream bound
Chasing my pet hound
Racing and rolling
Searching around
Spot a speck in the distance
Then he goes to ground
I must hunt the hunter
Until he is found
