From the top of the world ribbons of ice etch a path to the sea Crumbling at the shore icebergs drift and melt as sunlight lingers whales sing and seals play in blue depths unseen the ocean floor splits apart yielding the earths burning core fountains of fire hiss at the sea in a cloud of steam an island is born with trees that bend in relentless wind the darkest storms move on leaving mist and light dancing in the meadow rainbows sparkle on the lake's surface while golden trout dart below the sun slips behind the mountain filling the valley in cool shadows the cabin looks warm a crackling fire inside someone smiling by the door
