The Wizard's Way

I have charmed crag dwelling dragons
Sung the secret songs of sylvan elves
Shared lager and laughter with forest dwarves
And the timid tree root gnomes themselves

In the arid wastes of the east
Through the open northern halls of ice
Beyond the misty peaks of the far west
To the southern shores of paradise

I studied the lost languages
Of enchantment, love and poetry
Cloud watcher, stargazer, daydreamer, mage
Days of magic, wine, and wizardry
