Stone walls

Soldiers stand

Cold winter bites

Deep beneath their feet

Ancient dreaming souls wait

Secrets held by time made old

druid mysteries to be told

Let the world stand ready when they’re found

For magic lives beneath this old worn ground.

  2. You made this look effortless, Anita. I like the rhyme at the end too. It gives it a solid feel.
