A new reign
The air shimmered
with the promise of wonder
and the weight of magic.

Wide eyes stalked wizard staffs
held motionless -
anticipation
         b u i l d i n g . . .

Cacophonous booms
wrenched sobs and screams
from the vulnerable and wary,
gleefully delicious squeals
from thrill-seekers
delighting in the adrenaline rush.

Spells clashed, sending jagged spears
of lightning through the roiling clouds.

Incantations shivered across every surface.

A new legend would begin tomorrow...
for those who survived the celebrations.


Free verse. Written 19 September 2019.

First place in "Fabulous Fantasy Contest " Open in new Window. (September 2019)
