Lake of Mists

Eagle above earth will fly
He will drop a pearl from the sky
The pearl into lake shaped like an eye
Will transform as tiger passes by

Tiger turns into a mist
As part of a jungle he will exist
Hunting in this area he will persist
Scavenging carcasses of animals desist

Streamlined black swans swim on the lake
Their dark bodies contrast the sun as it is about to wake
Huge dragonflies buzzing sound will make
Peacock nymph butterflies soar above this enchanted lake

On the horizon castle stands tall
Written on its wall
There is language pertaining to the soul
The expanse of expanses through nonlinearity is this soul

Like an eye piercing boundless spectrum soul will pose
More sublime as red, silver or black rose
Hidden in ancient grottos 
Eye of spirit divine secrets will expose
