Welcome to my contribution to my Weekly Poetry Challenge, where you can write your own Haiku, Tanka, or Haibun using the prompt words of “gift and song.”

I closed my eyes when I felt the energy from the collective enter my soul. Like a surge of electrical impulses, the song of a thousand melodies echoed like waves in the atmosphere around me. I held out my hands ready to receive the vibrations.
“I see you.” The words empathically spoken filled me with joy. I had been recognized and accepted by the realm of the Meliae Nymphs. It felt good to be home once again.
The songs of the nymphs –
in tune with the collective,
a gift from the gods.

I just listened to a free Hay House recording of John Holland called Perceiving vs. Receiving. I’ve decided I’m clear sentient as a clear feeler and clairaudient. The poem flowed from me with no effort at all. I love it. ❤
