Gather round hear words
messages from what is gone
prophecies from what is to come
words from the four winds

I speak of the ones
not of young or old
Yet remain days untold
longer than oaks wood holds

How they are come
How they are gone
Doomed they are
To return ofBones

I talk of the gold
The rich and never old
The kings of creation
with power untold

Return they will
From graves long cold
To assert themselves
With long forgotten roles

Listen for the sound
On the East winds blown
of the beauties awaken
to the world unbound

Their princes'll ride
With gods at their side
agains't winters cold
in robes majestic Blue and Gold

Stop them we must
For the time is past
For beauty and the lust
All that we hold is icey distrust

They old as the sun
Will ride forever
On the road bevelled
from the constant run

Their lands are drown
Their heads are bowed
to all that pass them
up on the clouds

Now a return
The world will burn
In vengeance turn
As all creation they will spurn

So now be vigilant
So now not cry
We will watch the Earth
And we will gaurd the skies


  Did you write the Book of Love
And do you have faith in God above
If the Bible tells you so
Do you believe in rock 'n roll
Can music save your mortal soul
And can you teach me how to dance real slow

this is excellent walter... perect imagery... wondferful fable you have written...
very great work...as always...
take care, jm

 Do you live by the book, do you play by the rules
Do you care what is thought by others about you
If this day is all that is promised to you
Do you live for the present, the future the past...
