Can you tell me, wise old sage

What lies beyond the gate?

Will I journey through them?

And tempt the hands of fate

They say you are the only one

Who can tell my future true

I am here to listen closely

To the wisdom, that is you

In the setting sun of evening

With the stars that shine so bright

I’ll wait here, in the darkness

With you, as my guiding light

I’ll stand here and I’ll wonder

If you’ll ever let me see

What it is inside the gate

That’s waiting just for me

In a fit of pique, we took issue with their words

We needed sage advice, from those who knew

Instead we shed the blood of thousands of men

The bitter act of war, is never the last thing to do

A staff

Held in his hand

Captured from mere mortals

Proves otherworldly for a sage

Beauty lies nestled, inside a book

Open the pages, and let’s have a look

Let her spill out, onto the ground

Watch as the fauna gather around

Do they know, who lies there sleeping?

Among the trees, tis her safe keeping

For she is the one, the only sprite

Who guards the gardens, day and night

So tired and weary, she rests her head

The ground below her, makes her bed

Trees making sure she is shaded from sight

Though we can imagination, in sheer delight

Fascination awaits us, quick! Turn the page

Into the magical realm, of this sweet forest sage
