"Not all those who wander are lost." (J.R.R. Tolkien)


In the darkness does he lie
Sorrow for his lullaby
His reflection fails to capture
What he feels inside

But along there comes a rose
Blindly as the wind should blow
Just a touch of whimsy
Finds him in the flutt’ring snow

As the rosebud blooms
Little do they know
It’s quite plain to see
To their company
Foretold was it so
As the petal falls
Under light of moon
Little does he know
There is yet a rose
Blossoming anew

Eyes fall into trance
Newfound love enchants
Diamonds form from sin

Everything grows clear
With each other near
Faultless is their end


The author's comments:
Follows the tune of the intro song for Walt Disney's Beauty and the Beast, and switches over to the movie's theme song (which is also titled Beauty and the Beast). It's the one that starts out "tale as old as time...". See if you can find the switch. ;)
