1247 Memoria
29°
memoria,
burnin' burnin' in my sun
curse of nostalgia
a past that's never done
☉
memoria,
keep for me the ones i loved
more familiar
than their vestiges, time-robbed
☉
memoria,
looping through what i've become
this fractal story
beating always the same drum
☉
but a beckoning mountain
says it'll crown me
in golden present sun
so memoria,
i'll forsake you on the climb
burnin' burnin'
down the bridges in my mind

Whispering Woods Challenge Winners
Congratulations to Morgan Christy Rickards for their winning Whispering Woods story, Guardian at the Gate. Morgan has been a Vocal creator since February 2021, and this is their first time placing in Challenge — well done, starting with a win! Guardian at the Gate draws evocatively from Welsh tales of the Cantre'r Gwaelod, a lost sunken kingdom between the forest and the sea. Heledd’s dangerous adventure pulls her towards the water but her spirit is anchored in the woods: Morgan’s writing is atmospheric and exciting.

It's a triumphant and powerful feel that teaches a great boundary with the past. Or so I gained. Well done and thank you.
