Midst a mountain range, where the seraphim once flew Through frozen valleys and through wintery landscapes There they stand, the ivory bridges, colossal pillars of oak There it lies a kingdom of hope, a glory buried in cold. Once an arcane blue aurora Once ethereal, a fragrant memory Once a sanctum for the shadows Once a threshold to their twilight. The years, bygone, shimmering radiance Farewell they bid Mutter of reminiscence Vast plethora of snow. Wings of yore Embrace the light Once long lost. No morrow shall dawn. Longing for those times that won’t ever come again.
