In far-off realms beneath the sun


    ''tis there, blossoming bright in Spring


    Where flowers bud, pure waters run


    While joyful little finches sing.


    I see also a cloudless night


    Where swaying branches softly bear


    Fairy-blooms, and elf-stars white


    Amid their gold-green, branching hair.


    Here in the healing sea I lie,


    Upon the ocean''s churning deep


    Beneath the navy, darkened sky


    Beyond the threshold, now, of sleep.


    Above all shadows, there it dwells,


    A promise in the silent air,


    This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.And to this land, we''ll bid farewells,


    To rise skywards and find it there.


    We''ll find that haven, fair and free,


    And go beyond the starlit sea,


    Where then at last, we will ascend,


    And find in truth our journey''s end:


    To rise above the restless blue


    To find a sky of fairer hue.
