Wildren Pledge

We are the Children of The Wildren
Protected by our  Ancient Pledge
And we benefit from its Bounty
As we dwell around its edge 
It is dark and it is fearsome
And we very seldom enter
As we live in awe and respect for
The Dragon living at its Centre.

We are the Children of The Wildren
Here in  our appointed place 
And we travel with the wood when
It moves through Time and Space.
We live  in perfect harmony 
As we dwell around its edge
Share mutual awe and respect 
Protected by our Ancient Pledge.

We are the Children of Wildren
Our fierce protector and friend
Pledged by ancient agreement
Until our coming mutual end 
We are the Children of the Wildren
Our benevolent and bounteous wood.
All hail the mighty Wildren
Our source of power and good.

A wild fantasy. Well told from beginning to end in the marvelous Terry Ireland way.
