Gazing in awe I stood in rapture
At the wondrous sight mine eyes captured
Beholding its panorama – what beauty!
Away my breath it took with its majesty.
My numbed senses were hereupon thrilled
Heightened still as the southern winds chilled
Which had then teased and ruffled my hair
Now induced shivers without much care.
O could mere words ever suffice to define
The enchantment of this spectacle so fine
Which hath once resided in my dreams –
A realm where the silent sentries reign.
