O’ Spinner of Tales, spin me a fantastical tale

Chart a magnificent odyssey that’ll make epics pale

​

Become rarefied air and take my breath away

Make me your legend for all time to hold sway

​

​

​

Tell me a story that’s never been told before

​

Yet carries the seeds of all the fables of yore

Beyond imagination's horizon to magical faraway lands

Across all seas and oceans to shores of golden sands

​

​

​

A place of judicious wisdom where judgment doesn't exist

 

Where my uncertain fate reckons with destiny’s tryst

Where knowledge bows in obeisance to the mystical unknown 

 

And no words are spoken but wondrous visions are shown

Where my frailties become the cauldrons forging my furies

And my sins are punished and then forgiven without juries

​

​

Take my hand and lead me to a place that defies belief

Where loving and losing doesn’t shroud me in grief

​

​

​

A place where cloudy mists encircle mighty mountains

​

An oasis where arid deserts burst forth with fountains

​

​

​

Where all creation slows down to a glacial pace

​

And a peaceful void fills all time and space

​

Write soothing words to salve the wounds my soul bares

Tell me a story that’ll free me of my worldly cares

​

​

​

Take me to a place that burns with your undying love for me

​

Where we can ignite our forbidden passion for all to see

​

 

 

A place where I am safe in your arms

​

And give myself fully to your charms

O’ Spinner of Tales, spin me a fantastical tale

In your words my story resides

Don’t fail
