Echoes of the Emerald Quadrant

In a hush-lit square of night,

a ribbon of jade recalls each pace

and coils through quiet borders.

Heartbeat settles to ten slow drums;

four silent currents linger—

cardinal whispers waiting for a cue.

A single crimson seed glows in the turf.

When hunger greets that ember,

the ribbon earns a fresh segment of self,

careful never to graze its own echo

nor brush the dim meadow’s rim.

If echo meets echo or shadow meets edge,

letters flare once in the dark

then ebb to black, inviting dawn.

(When these verses travel to a blank horizon,

let their imagery breathe as moving light:

set the square, the ribbon, the seed,

the drums, the currents—the whole quiet dance—

inside a whispered pair of triple glyphs.

Thus, the meadow awakens in living rhythm

for any wanderer who turns the page.)
