Evolution      
           (Submitted by Morngrym )

     I journeyed through the woods that day
     Just to see what I might find
     In the world of cool morning air
     A peaceful time to clear the mind

     The trees swayed gently around me
     And every beast still knew sleep
     It almost seemed free and strong
     A place that had finally found relief

     But I knew this to be an illusion
     For I could not deny the truth
     The quiet just seemed to have healed
     The earth-shaking battles I knew as a youth

     Its amazing how the realm has grown
     As the years passed by in a blur
     Heros have died, as others were born
     Glory for him, honor for her

     So I sat on a stump and thought
     Of the great tales that have been told
     Paladins, Clerics and so many others
     Those who were frightened, those who were bold

     The names live now only in memory
     As others have awakened and become renowned
     Still, more tales and incredible deeds
     What was thought to be lost is actually found

     And so it continues...another glorious day
     As we dream again and the pages turn
     Adventure in every hidden corner
     More to discover...more to learn.
