Caer Witrin (Bardic)
By: Kiusha Posted on: July 30, 2007
--------- Winter rules this artful place, which enchants with its soothing songs that drift from the music store and its heavenly cocoa that only Percival can prepare. After your visit to the Temple of Scarlatti, let the beauty of the landscape, the leopards and the crystal spiders capture you and don't leave for home until you've bought one of those wonderful paintings to ever remind you of your trip. 1. Hall of Ice - The amazing entrance to Scarlatti's temple 2. Touch of Winter - The Art of winter 3. Collected Caer Haiku - Observations of Caer Witrin's beauty 1. Hall of Ice -------------- Tiles of tinted ice glimmer and shine bright. Distant, soft music fills you with delight. Centred in the square: a fountain of ice. The corners' artists all sculpted precise. A lyre, yellow, a delicate shade: heart of the fountain, forever to stay. A hall of beauty sets the scene so strong to crown the temple where all art belongs. What better entrance to the place holy to the Great Bard, our Lord Scarlatti? 2. Touch of Winter ------------------ Winter's fingers drip with water as they linger under eaves. On the ground a glassy sheet; his tender touch is soon revealed. Winter's arms embrace the world, enfold her in his snowy care. The shimmering blanket warms our hearts, and of his love we're made aware. And very gently winter's breath will decorate the windows as he slowly breathes his art into the frosty flowers on the glass. 3. Collected Caer Haiku ----------------------- Vellum sheets rustle Revealing crystal chimes Magic music store --------- Frida tints paintings A mesmerizing vista Atop the cliff --------- Pale pink petals bloom Intoxicating perfume Snow blossoms --------- Treading tracks through snow White lightning on padded paws Glorious snow leopard --------- Warm, blanketed walls Covered in furry clothes Furrier's store --------- Glassy tinkling Fluttering through the air Crystal butterfly --------- A plethora of colours Spinning before your eyes Paint-splattered kitten ------------------------------------------------------------------------
