Nature Spirits

| Tiny fairy lights? |
Fairies, sprites, and gnomes, oh my!
Maybe you didn’t imagine those small, twinkly lights clustered in the woods or your garden.

LIKE A LIGHTHOUSE KEEPER
With only a candle in hand, she slowly made her way down.
The old bricks that formed the foundation were weeping their white mortar.
She went directly to a crusty, old metal box where a wood-burning
tool was stored. Then she climbed back up the creaky stairs in a trance-like
state. The cumbersome tool was wound with a thick, black electric cord that
swung in her hand with each step she took, like the walk of a lighthouse keeper
holding his lantern.

SCHOOL FOR DREAMS - Come In!
She relished a scenario she was conjuring up—owning the
grandest house in the neighborhood—that huge, colorful Victorian directly in
front of her. Cassandra pictured herself with a family and a loving husband who
was handsome and ambitious. Chills
ran up and down her spine at the grandiose dream of having it all.
Then, lo and behold, she saw a wooden sign hanging over the
door of the Victorian. Cassandra
stepped closer to read it. She
made a mental note to someday find out what it was all about.

CASSANDRA HEARD SPOKEN WORDS
Before leaving, she placed her tools in the moss-covered
stone out-building bordering the thicket.
As Cassandra closed the door to the shed, she felt a familiar
apprehension. It caught her off guard.
I forgot about that.
Could it be the way the light came through the trees and
formed creepy shadows or the rich smell of the earth making her feel
heady? Or maybe it was the silent
graves down the road. There was no
wind, but Cassandra heard spoken words rippling through the air—conversation.
She cringed, dwelling on what remained behind.

RIP IN THE UNIVERSE
A portion of the baby-blue sky on the horizon turned a deep
indigo. The water surrounding the dock roiled, lapping against wooden pilings
and splashing over the pier.
A rip in the Universe formed and a muted gray schooner
sailed across, creating a sense of dread for the onlookers, even Amelia. It
came forward rapidly—skimming the inky water’s surface and traveling through
all the pleasure craft, fishing boats, and water skiers who had no awareness of
its presence. The guests stood, horrified by the unfolding scene, as the
sailboat headed straight toward the house.
So much Symbolism in this passage. Let's start with the element of water. Any thoughts???
