Twelve Kings Twelve Queens Twelve Lords of the Sea Twelve Ladies of the Earth Forty-eight hands linked Each palm dry and smooth Resembling the leafs of a Spring maple Slender strong arms Elbows slightly bent Linked hands Forming a sphere Of perfect measures Forty-eight violet eyes Unblinking Twinkle like stars just born Every pair staring within The sphere’s center Slowly Unraveling the prophesy Of the dancing pebbles Twelve sunless days Twelve moonless nights The ancient guardians Read the puzzle of the future Their violet eyes Unblinking As the hour of the Nightingale’s song Breaks the silence The pebbles of prophesy Freeze their dance in mid-air And between the watching eyes Of the guardians And the nightingale’s song The pebbles shatter In unison Into fragments of Broken glass Each face bordering the sphere Turns an ashen white Each expression soon One of hollowness Forty-eight Pale hands Tremble Forty-eight Violet eyes Overflow with tears Each shattered glass Liquefies into a Deathly freezing ice Extending outwards To the helpless world Surrounding Each guardian Raises his and her Face up to the moonless night sky Their tears freezing On their cheeks As the liquid ice Sweeps of their toes Rushes up to engulf The rest of their bodies Screams that opened holes to other worlds Shrieks that shattered every stone and breathing lung Manifest in terrible echoes Reaching every corner of the Atmosphere In the empty space Where once planet Earth revolved Around the sun Now countless numbers of Ice shards Dance… Unseen and unknown eyes Watch the Dancing ice shards Lost in the blackness With deep sadness Earth A planet with so much… Fire Water Soil Stone Air Nature Everything…. Man lost the connection It once had with nature Blinded by Manipulation and greed War and hate Control and corruption Power and destruction In twenty-four hundred years Those whose souls Remained pure Whose eyes Remained open And all elements Will embrace As lovers Opening a new Window In the fabric of worlds
