| We abide last hug, last handshake —don't call again— the message clear or muddled separation for a day, a month —forever— time never cares who cruel it treats us we abide in our hidden recesses until it's safe to come out again to say hello (albeit timid) to the world that has left us behind. © Kåre Enga [177.168] (30.juli.2020) Prompt: As The Daily Poem closes for another while, write about an ending, closing or goodbye.

| Ingrid Fossensdatter she swishes her tail as if to summon a troll, her hovel hidden behind rock scree and waterfall, a handsome hulder if she must say so herself. it's been awhile and she's getting lonely, someone to share a night-long conversation, a cup of catmint tea, maybe her bed. she'd prefer a lad but no one has asked her to watch his charcoal overnight. no one has offered gifts in return perhaps she's become a myth, but she hides her tail when she goes to town. they think her kind's unwashed. she lives under a waterfall to cleanse herself. oh, to dance by starlight, tail twirling, her long skirt swirling, a diva or a dancing queen oh, to be seventeen — like a century ago. © Kåre Enga [177.167] (30.juli.2020) (30 lines) Since today’s winning poem has roots in Greek myth, write a poem inspired by a myth or fairytale.
