Sentinels rising to the sky
Beauty, power, pedigree
Mirrored in the lake of reality
What lies beneath her calm waters?
What monster lurks
Awaiting an unsuspecting prey?
Who will scale the majestic peaks
And touch the fiery clouds?
Who will look beneath
To reveal the words in obscurity?
Beware the ephemeral beauty!
Soon the moon will rise
And stubborn clouds
Will deny her gift of light
Offer menacing shadows only
Behold! The dark of night!
