Tower

Long before words were written There was a legend of a wizard hidden In the tallest tower the world had seen Atop the stars, and in between Dwelling as he did, midst Jupiter and Mars And contemplating this world of ours A fleet of dragons at his command Seems they alone could understand His every wish they flew to serve And in all the world there was no nerve To challenge his ascendancy And throughout all lands It was easy to see There was no other way it could ever be His tower pierced the highest cloud And no top could be seen From ground below And no one really seemed to know Be it brave knight or king proud How this tower did so mightily grow Enough stones for 1000 a great pyramid Surely magic was involved for the wizard did Create this tower overnight No one on earth could miss the sight As dragons circled overhead And the wizard's enemies were to dread His spells were too strong to overcome And for anyone he displeased, Their life was done.... So if you see a magic eye.. Remember that You can not deny The wizard watches over you And your words must be but true.
