    Lynch

    In the flashing of the star that shines
    Between the forest's densest leaves
    Twinkling in pale dark pools
    As something sings a mystery

    Halfway up the man-made pinnacle
    In a cave of crystal and gold
    Like the depths of ancient mines
    A silver prince hides what holds love

    Trained to tame the heat within
    To turn the heart, embrace the frost
    By alchemists whose potions are
    The words ensconced in beams of light.

    I particularly love "To turn the heart, embrace the frost"....

    ElegantButler may not have intended it, but there's something evocative of love-making in these lines, somewhere...can't pin it down.
