There's a long green ladder
leading to a grand red castle
with monsters along the way

the castle breathes a heavenly scent
its beauty shines like a million gold coins
while still delicate as a butterfly

its children, hidden deep below
wait for the perfect moment
a knight to soar in and carry them away

when the weather changes, the castle crumbles
only to rise again even more beautiful
reborn again like a great phoenix.
