Forest Fastness

there is a rushing
A sudden hush
an expectant pause
over the vastness
of the ancient forest
.
A false calm
before raging storms
whip the trees
into a frenzied dance
of nature
.
In the eye
of the forest
in the center
of the storms
lays a fastness
.
In the halls
of the fortress
Lies the heart
of the land
Sacred to all
.
Here no storm rages
here only calm
here are the tomes
of the ages
In the fastness
of the realm
