Castle

This is a quatern poem in iambic tetrameter about a magical, floating castle. It is strongly inspired by Chrono Trigger and the wistful, contemplative moods that Corridors of Time as well other game music has inspired in me.

This is also a track from a poetry album I released on Bandcamp called Moonlight.

Here is the poem.

Castle

The floating,
skyward castle there
Is built from ancient
quarried stone;
With secret
magic in the air
Does float the
kingdom's storied
throne.

Above majestic,
rolling hills
The floating,
skyward castle there
With bold, enchanting
creatures fills -
Their varied features
strange and rare.

The bounty of
the lively faire
With food and games
does fill the court;
The floating,
skyward castle there
Is filled with wonder,
jest and sport.

With mages, knights
and artists too,
These halls through
magic deeds are where
The bravest souls,
with strength endue
The floating,
skyward castle there.
