Adorned in his mystical robes of shimmering moon and stars, drawn from the vault of heaven by the power of Merlin, himself, when other worlds were only seven. He emerges from the crystal cave, from the old world into the new, He holds aloft the sacred chalice. Before him lies the shinning palace... of Chamelot He smiles on his remembering then salutes the once and future king. Ida Werrett |

Ida, You've captured my passion for wizards in this poem--a magical journey with just enough mystery to keep me coming back, wondering. with smiles Lynda [This message has been edited by Gaelynsgirl (08-21-2008 11:36 AM).] |

Love this, Ida! The myth and mystery of wizards always enthralls. "He smiles on his remembering then salutes the once and future king." Yes - maybe history repeats itself. Helen |

Thank you all so much for your very kind comments. Yes, Bobby, I read The Crystal Cave, The Hollow Hills and The Last Enchantment some years ago and found them facinating. Merlin is one of my favorite people as well. |
