Sylvan Mystery

Bow at ready, ever watching

Quarry sighted, target marked

None will see the one that stalks them

None will catch the glint of silver hair

Not cold or hard, but fair and kind

So few will see him outside the forest

Forsaking the court, preferring solitude

Few know his true nature

Always willing to teach his craft

To aid or mentor one in need

Yet ever does he hide in the forest

Enjoying darkness far more than light

Step out of the shadows, mysterious one

The darkness does not suit your spirit

No, say you, the darkness is my home

How can one hunt when the light shines full force?

You may join me, if you wish

Join me in the endless hunt

Enjoy the solitude that the shadow brings

See in the dark what the light fails to illuminate

Know that the blessed light may shine as beauty to some

But the shadow shows things for what they truly are.
