A Dance of Moon and Leaves

Lore poem commission for LelaniUeki

There lies a magical forest

Inside it a dryad

With hair like vines

Born from the lunar luminescence

A voice full of splendor

Gifted by the moon

Relish in her song

Blessed by the trees

Her strength is her fierce gentleness

A graceful serenity in her petals

A majestic poise in her thorns

She is the maiden and the guardian

Criseira in her soul

The people are her heart

Their love sees her humanity

Her humanity always bears fruit

In Criseira's name, she is her Gaia

She is the forest, she is the earth

Gardens are born at her feet

She is nature itself

Artemis to the animals

She is home, she is tranquility

Verdant is her spirit

Her very spirit is a haven

Relish in the dryad's song

Her voice enchanted by the moon

Her soul dances with the leaves

Her heart serves the grove

The moon's light birth a flower

The flower blossoms into a dryad

Her name is the song of those she protects

The animals she defends

The forest she loves

The humans she cherishes

Her name spoken in reverence

An angel in green

Relish in her love

Criseira in her heart

Dryad's lullaby

A hymn of the wilds

Blessed by the moon

Loved by the forest

She is Lelani
