Wizard

Magic fills the night air                                                                           
A shroud of mist lifts                                                                                   
The black raven takes flight                                                                 
Fairy folk bring their gifts
                                              
The wizard's crystal sparkles
His ancient powers call
Wicked thunder moans as
Blinding fire falls
                                                                                
Moon and stars glimmer
Astral forces are invoked
His mighty hands shimmer
As mystic winds ruffle his cloak

His eyes grow dimmer
The spell is cast
Time is the only witness
To legends of the past
