Summary: Who was Mary Winchester?
Author's Note: I wrote a poem for some bizarre reason earlier in the week (The Rock) and then have been struck by another bolt of something (lightening or something supernatural? Who knows?) resulting in this one which is quite different from what I thought when the ideas first started appearing but it is what it is and that is this:-
Radiant, and incandescent,
Her blonde hair glorious in the sunlight
Her smiling glowing with love.
Warmth always
Mother, lover, friend
Listen, Soothe, Calm
Gentle hands and gentle words.
Luminescent features
Etched into a memory
Treasured for eternity.
Fire consumes
Hatred burns
Anger destroys
What remains?
The ash that remains
Was once family and home
Magnificent life force
Charred then extinguished.
Fire remains but changes
Flames oscillate
Feelings and beliefs vacillate
No longer the same
Constant change
Revenge seeks retribution.
Desolation seeks justice.
Children baptised in fire
Her legacy, her destiny
Children strengthened by conviction
Children certain of a mother's sacrifice.
Mother, lover, friend
Fire, Flame, Ash
Revenge, Retribution, Life.
Author's Note: Thanks for reading, hope it reads okay as cannot get site to accept section breaks, just runs it all together as one long piece. Please review and let me know what you think. Does it seem right for the little we know of Mary?
