In the debris of the past, lay a seed for the future, He was brought there by the winds of fate... from lands far and distant... He woke up to find the shattered dreams of the past crowding his vision, In an alien frozen land, there was no love to be found, but he did not give up, he fought the battle, he gathered hope from the gentle wings of fire which brought him life from above, he was grateful for the currents of hope that nurtured him deep, he held on to the bosom of the frigid ground as the ice slowly receded, he did not give up courage as the glories of the past withered away, he waited in patience, through the darkest hours of night in the hope of light. And the wait was worth the while... Soon, he was strong and able, his hopes came true and his dreams took root, He broke through the barriers and found the world anew, there were new dreams for the future, and there was a new life to be lived, It was indeed worth all the fight. He grew in stature and learnt the ways of the world, he found love and he found joy, this world was his home, where he belonged, He loved his life and all seemed right... he spread cheer and he gave life, from the tales of his past there was hope to be found.. But then before long, the forces of nature came visiting again and he knew the end was near... But he had made a difference and he knew that's what counted, he had fought his battles and left a mark, he had left hope for the future through his past... It was a life well lived and that's all that mattered... And so he bid farewell and closed his eyes, with joy in his heart and peace in his mind, he left the world better than what it was.
