Undying LandsA Poem by James CrouchI am the king of the undying lands A throne of thorns made by idle hands Those that have reigned know I be true For the valley is washed and born anew I am the prince of the underground world A kingdom of crystals, diamonds and pearls Brought into daylight by the tunnels so
wide Tales are told of what lies inside I am the pauper of the village so old Thatch huts and cook fires and old stories
told Travelling east as the world comes undone We dance and we dive, we wander, we run I am the messenger, I carry the winds A fiery breeze that carries adventure within
Lost in the forest that reaches deep in the
night The sounds of the creatures that creep out
of sight I am the soul, of a world lost in time Where heroes are born and legends don’t die
I am the keeper of secrets so old Where flames burn bright as the stories are
