ELVEN KIND ©

Hidden throughout the ages lest any should see
Fair lands from lofty crags to the cold seas foam
Filled with truth and light from an ancient decree
There live the Fair Ones in wisdom do they roam.

Filled with knowledge learned in ages long past
Skilled in all things beautiful and strong are they
Builders of things fair and true, ageless to last
Lives of honor, truth and courage are their way.

Slow to wrath, true of heart and of sound mind
The Ancient Ones in peace and harmony they live
Skilled in war when called yet steadfast, caring, kind
If dire and grave needs arise their all they do give.

Hale of limb, sharp of eye, tireless they do seem
Ever working and playing and living in grace
Each abode whether humble or high does gleam
Ever is a sense of order and calm is this place.

Caretakers of all that is good, right and true
Vigilant, never shirking a task they undertake
Impeccable timing every action as if on cue
Quenching yet thirsting of knowledge to slake.

Loyal to their lords, family and friends true
No guile, evil knowledge, or nonsense they brook
Taking no heed of easy gain or honor when due
Able to discern one’s true nature with one look.

Benefactors are we of the race of mankind
Of the efforts of a race yet hidden from view
Unknown to us we are constantly on their mind
To the Ancient Ones is great honor of us due.

When midst the strife of woes, wants and pain
Let us pause just one moment to contemplate
Giving thought to those hidden and so refrain
From evil or malice in right ways participate.

If in reading this you’ve not discerned my goal
Then read again with all wonder you will find
Our elder Elven brothers and their caring role
In gratitude keep their ways in heart and mind.
