Every night Benita dreams. She envisions her home is a beautiful city of clean, silver buildings. She dreams of a queen banished for not sharing the secret of her powers. And when she wakes, nothing she sees matches what she visioned. The city she lives in is crowded with trash and debris, and the structures are covered with thick grime. She must decide what's more real: the world she has known since birth, that she can touch and see, or the world she dreams, that she feels with her heart.
The padded footsteps of a white tiger pass a servant girl in the hallway of an Arabian palace. The prince's toys rise up to defend him from a band of mercenaries. A sinister man takes control of the palace while the Sultan is away... but what is his purpose? Another of Raver's tales of hidden magic, 'The Enchantress' is a short story that takes the reader to a fictional land, and into the mind of a mysterious young woman.
A collection of poetry from author D. M. Raver. FROM THE AUTHOR Thank you for reading Philosophies of A Young Heart, A Poetry Collection. This is my second poetry book to be released. My first is titled Deep Dark Waters. As I began to collect the poetry for this book, I realized that so much of it was dark, almost depressing. It occurred to me that this was not because I am always dark and brooding (though I am at times). Poetry helps me express my feelings when I faced with the trying things in this world. One of these poems I wrote after hearing of a student in the town I worked in committed suicide. Another was after I saw a homeless woman beside the street. It's not always happy, but it's my life. And poetry is a window into the soul.
A family is divided as war with Gorusk looms in the future... They thought the hidden garden at Rosewall foretold their fate. Statues depicted in a time locked battle, three kingdoms opposing Shirr, the tyrant king of Gorusk. Nothing has prepared them for the doom that gathers on the horizon. Assassins will come in the night. Death will come from the sky. Betrayal from within. Though Dornata and Corban struggle to keep their family safe, the closer they get to the time of the foretold battle, the more in danger they become. And the strange child, with red eyes of a dragon, secretly gathers strength.
