Lady of the Loch

Hills protect the mighty waterway
Waterway of ancient fact and legend
Legend and fact entwine within the protection Of the hills

Quiet he sits with his back against a tree
Tree, silent guardian, one of many along The shore
Shore, witness to past glories, quiet

Wind soothes his tiredness as his eyes search
Search for his love to return from captivity
Captivity, long years of sorrow and loneliness, Her name he whispers to the wind

Stars glitter brightly and planets glow
Glow highlights a sudden wave surge
Surge violent cresting reaching for stars

Waves hide and display a shadowy shape
Shape of the serpent massive
Massive creature rises from the waves

Iridescent glow of lady upon his back
Back to the shore the serpent powerful
Powerful, the Warrior runs to the waves and The lady iridescent

Lowering his head, the serpent seems to smile
Smile radiant from the Warrior as he hugs His lady
Lady and Warrior walk from the waves as the Serpent disappears by lowering

Legends abound about Loch Ness
Loch Ness, her Nessie, reward the lady and Her Warrior
Warrior, in Life with the lady, will guard Loch Ness And further legends
