Seed's Poetry Corner: Patience

On seeing my dear Sage tonight, I had the chance to reflect on love -- patient love, which must prepare its endurance. Inspired as I am by her presence, it followed naturally.

Patience


I want to capture you in things,
store up the memory of you
like a squirrel hiding nuts
in the ground, soon to freeze.

I want to catch your fur
in the inner-heart red of the poppies,
with their petals soft to brush
against my skin as I run by.

I want to store your laugh
in the song of birds
we'd watch -- the distant
chirp that fades into song.

I want to gorge the air
with the sweetness of your smile,
the defrosting tenderness
of pollen-scented spring, flowers opening, and --


I want, always, like a stone
that catches the sun and radiates
that heat into the cool night,
To keep your love inside my heart.

Seed's Poetry Corner: Relying on Other Senses

I've gotten a chance to see my dear Sage tonight, when I was starting to worry that might have been my single miracle. In the light of that, I find myself with a faith I do not think will be moved again -- and inspiration to spare.

Relying on Other Senses

I find I must trust:
I chase your elusive figure,
we blend the world into an impressionist blur,
As we run and outstrip wind.

I chase your elusive figure,
as you dart out from my sight,
as you run and outstrip wind:
All ahead of me's lost,

as you dart out from my sight
and leave me chasing the invisible.
All ahead of me's lost,
and I must trust your presence

to keep me chasing the invisible --
trust your hoofbeats and your herbal scent,
and I must trust your presence,
that you'll turn back to see me.

As I trust your hoofbeats and your herbal scent,
we blend the world into an impressionist blur.
That you'll come back to see me:
I find I must trust.

The Search for the Mask Tree!

Let's start out with this: I had a nice set once with the brown coat lined with golden stripes, the real deer mask and some strange antlers (which I manage to regain again somehow). Now, I'm on a hunt to find the tree which grows magical mushrooms, and hope other deer are there to exchange masks with.

I haven't been on TEF with a lot of interaction in one sitting in years, but I've been wiggling my way back into the game. Hence, I'm a dumdum who forgets half of anything I learned with the side-effect of low patience in a game without any relation to action mmos. I'll remember how to eventually -- Ah, I ramble.

It brings me to this question: How do I find the mushroom tree? If I can't through the symbols on my map, since I cannot figure out what it is telling me (it must be confusing for those more familiar with The Path), should I continue to run around, meet others and hope for the best?

(And do people still do those mask exchanges? And RPs? c:) Thanks!

So Kai is a bit awkward...

I mean my deer, Kai. You may have seen me around trying to socialize with you and Kai will just stare at you for a long time and maybe try to say hi. The thing is, my socializing skills are horrible IRL and they just get a bit better in the forest because I don't have to talk.

Still, if you see my Kai around trying to play or lay with you or just staring at you awkwardly, I want you to know that he's not trying to be creepy or rude. He just wants a friend to play and sleep with.

This is because I spent some time with some deers and most of the time I was just bowing and sniffing and staring at them and a lot of them tilted their heads like "?Question?" and I felt like I was being awkward or rude. My apologies. I am still new to the forest, I haven't made any friend and I want to roleplay and play and I always run on strangers.

PD: Sorry about any mistake I may have! English is not my main language.
