Sacred Place

Orchids drenched in silver mist
Sprinkled upon the forgotten land
A sacred place; thought nought to exist
Unveil in my dreams in a single strand

Man's first touch was borne right here
Serving its creator by playing dumb
Preserving nature year after year
Never wondering where he was from

Trees tinted in gold dripping mirth
Ponds thriving with sapphire hues
Tranquility poured upon the Earth
A playground to the great god's muse

Evil was chained and kept far away
Till the voice of a woman opened the gate
Ancient pink roses wither and decay
As history crumbles what once was great

Small saplings break through and await
Falling walls as a sign of untamed fate
