The splash from my wet footsteps
The voice of the howling wind
The shattering of twigs from their mothers
The noise of me searching
Wandering in the mazes of my conscience
Trying to figure out the graffiti of my life
One of the images has got to define my purpose!
Passion rules me
The passion of my ancestors
A burning will of fire
A shimmering light with no explicable source
A gift from the earth
Never inherited
A mission to change my country
A vision to mend my people
A revision of my history
Memories forgotten
New history written
The story changes
The conversation changes
Even my clothes change too
I am grown now
I am change

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.
