Old Man Winters Right Hand Man

HE WEARS A COPPER BRACELET, 
WRAPPED AROUND HIS WRIST.
HE SPEAKS OF OLD MAN WINTER, 
OFTEN WITH A TWIST.
THE BUST OF OLD MAN WINTER, 
IS ON THAT COPPER BAND.
BOTH HE AND OLD MAN WINTER, 
ARE FROM UNWORLDLY ANCIENT LAND.
SOME SAY HE LIVED A THOUSAND LIVES, 
HE IS SAID TO BE IMMORTAL.
LEGEND TELLS US HE WILL COME AND GO, 
BY PASSING THROUGH A PORTAL.
HE'LL TELL YOU HE'S OBSERVER, 
OF BOTH TIME AND EARTH.
HE REPORTS TO OLD MAN WINTER, 
FOR WHAT IT'S REALLY WORTH.
HE SHARES HIS OBSERVATIONS, 
THROUGH POETRY ACROSS THE LAND.
A CHALLENGE TO ALL MORTAL BEINGS, 
OF WINTERS COLD DEMANDS.
