In Merry Elysium

Note: The lake in the above cover is Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada.

Oh those mornings in elysium!
Those mountains conjuring my soul back to my being,
for once a morning arose dimming all delirium,
to which I rubbed my eyes, thinking of it as a dream.

Gazed down below feeling cool in my feet,
and the bare touch of rocks to my soles,
serenity of the lake pellucid was beyond any beliefs,
like god descending down filling all the imperfect holes!

Woke up to the sight of a ceremony divine,
where Earth marries Water,
Earth wearing a gown studded with emeralds,
of mighty teaks and pines!

The tale of this love,
is a tale beyond perfection,
for the lake's love for the mountain is pure,
in the lake's visage, the mountain sees its reflection.

As the ceremony was to meet its end,
Earth kissed the lake, forever as one they blend,
no wonder matches are made in heaven,
to meet eternal harmony, undoubtedly god sent.

Amongst all the merry hues I was lost,
but then, all of a sudden,
the mountain melted away and the lake went dry,
the sound of my alarm crashed my dream,
the thought of a tedious day ahead made me cry.
