Elven Dreams

A tranquil walk in a shadowed forest.
A place of peace for me.
I hear the call of ancient ones
"Come soar upon the sea!"

Yet within my soul I wish to stay,
If only for a while.
To sit amongst the shadowed veil,
Or walk the Mallorn isle.

I rest myself upon a rock
And slip through a grove of dreams.
Of golden trees with silver light
Filtering through dark beams.

I dream of days from long ago,
For now their time has closed.
I must away from this fair land,
On winds the sails are posed.

I savor all the memories,
And make my long goodbyes.
I stand to leave, it's time to go,
And tears fall from my eyes.
