Inspired by “Passionflower” by Jon Gomm
A mighty forest ancient so
Where a stranger rushing wind might blow
Where to clouds of paradise do show
There you’ll find the Lesovick
Where there’s an angry thunderstorm
Where lightning crimson red is born
And into green the sky is torn
There you’ll see the Lesovick
Where creatures live in trees perched high
And sparrows, size of stallions fly
Where sprites do sleep and faeries lie
All bow to the Lesovick
His body old as the turning Earth
Of colossal size and fantastic girth
Protecting all life from budding birth
King of the forest, Lesovick
A healthy green his body be
Bark for skin, his skeleton tree
And a crown of branches for all to see
The lordly crown of Lesovick
His beard of vine and twigs all bent
His words like air, strong but silentHis eyes like lightning, bright and vibrant
The emerald eyes of Lesovick
Where creatures live in trees perched high
The sky is green, red light lightning flies
This guardian does keep an eye
The emerald eyes of Lesovick
