Swords singing on the breeze,Imagine the pageantry.Kings and Queens of long ago.Not fantasy?Where did they go?Cities that shone, copper and gold.People in sandals upon cobbled stone.Tunics and jewels, hierarchy reigns,Royalty waving for peasantry's strain.Myth and Lore whole cultures they hold.Knights in castle's catacombs,Gu...
