A Distant Time

There was time when laughter struck

each melting chord of dawn,

And troubles seeped into the earth,

like there ne're was right nor wrong

There was a time when power hung

within the hands of fate,

And humans saw no likeness

In kings and high estate,

There was a time when minds were built

with strong and fearless hearts,

And peices of the human soul

were not torn in seperate parts,

There was a time so distant

So full of joy and mirth,

But humans have forgotten

When elves walked Middle-Earth
