I dream
Of guardians
In goldenrod armour
Of guardians
In goldenrod armour
In countenance: fierce
But whose hearts
Have the gentleness
Of brushed cotton
I dream
Of a life
In goldenrod splendour
In which guardians
Are lost mem’ries
From times of unrest
Long ago forgotten
Of one
I dream sleeping
While the other
I dream waking
