The Lorilee's Lullabye

Under the crest
of a wing
brushed
by her mane
I knelt 
in her glory
told her my name
when the Lorilee 
did sing
reverberating round
the beauty
and wonder
of the purest sound
hearing distorts
all but her voice
in this 
Really,
I had no choice
Her eyes 
like a balm
healing the soul
mist flowing off
like the top 
of a knoll
divinities beauty
fantastic form
turning to fury
in a 
demons storm
calm though she is
upset her 
I did not
till I knew her more
find out 
whats her plot
why do I feel glee ?
look all around
no sound it
can't be heard
no ending 
can be found
just this 
feeling free
I whisper 
under breath
“Is this Eternity?”
