Castle of Red Brick

A great brick castle stands on a hill To build it took a great skill Long ago it would be defense now it is a thrill Yet something about is mystery and power one can feel The towers are complex and seem to lift off the ground No other castle of this size is found The bell tower makes roaring sound The mighty king was once upon a time in this castle crowned On the way to the castle vines grow Only window the size of a barrow Of open space between trees is left where vines don’t grow Normally you can see castle through it at distance of a throw However often window is I would like to mention Doorway to another dimension And things in those dimensions are found Of both sight and sound The things in them a person will see Are of spellbinding beauty They are visual answers to abstract meaning of life philosophy They are door to alternative destiny The castle itself is formed by a thought And it is thought That to existence it brought Through echoes of time the castle is true juggernaut
