Loch Ness

Grey mist drifts upon the water
The mirrored surface moves
Awakened of this presence
Dispelling legends proof
A beastly head of onyx
With eyes set coals of fire
It’s leathered hide glides glistening
Ascends the heathered briar
This legend lives through centuries
Evoking history’s memories
Prevailing in eternities
On and on and on
Loch Ness confess
Your terror of the deep
Loch Ness distress
Malingers what you keep
Loch Ness protects monstrosity
Loch Ness confess to me
Somehow it heeds the piper
From battlements that call
From side to side it ponders
In passion in the skirl
This highland lair of mystery
Retains a lost world empathy
Resilient to discovery
On and on and on
This legend lives through centuries
Evoking history’s memories
Prevailing in eternity
Your secret lies safe with me
This creature’s peril from decease
Implores to mankind for release
A legacy to rest in peace
On and on and on
