Psyche WLTM her Cupid.

Orpheus seeks Eurydice;
I won’t look back.

Trawling through my twitter feed and my poems for the writing prompt vss365. The word on this day was Psyche.

downy wind’s
hot breath
against uptipped face
tracking the foaming engine in the canopy
pressure piles against my skull
a thrill from thrumbling overhead
and a divine filament spurs me
soaking to the haven of my porch

In ancient woodland
this child roamed,
lost in nature,
briar & loam.
Mapping clearings,
badger setts,
the places where
the deer had slept.
Picking berries
hops & flowers,
lying under
stripling bowers.
Until evening's
amber gloam,
with twiggy hair
racing home.
Joined Twitter and began trying writing prompts with vss365.  Challenging for me not to expand on the story and my adventures in our wood as a child.
