My Monday Metrical Musings #258

Fantasy Fiction Feelings

Entering a world
Of monsters and dragons
Witches and warlocks
Heroes and legends
Building up a rich storehouse

Of fantasy fiction feelings
Learning about life through tales and lores
Shoring up unknown feelings
So we know how to respond
Next time in non-fiction realm

That’s the power of story
That’s why fiction exists
It’s what we need to understand life
Its many shades and palettes
The subtle shifts of the human tide

To develop our own repertoire
Of feelings that we may yet experience
So when the moment comes
We’ll know how to react
How to re-enact

How we respond
Through poetry or song
How we react
Is what makes us human
That sets us apart from machines

I hope more people will
Allow fiction feelings to grow
To realise it’s not fluff
Or simply a pastime
But something that helps us
Achieve the divine!
