The smallest clan of the human race

Who built their homes a few blocks from grace

Who gaze upon the starlit nights

And tarry till the dawn of wisdom

Alights upon their dreamers brow

 

Being reborn of fumes and flame

The glory adorns their youthful mane

As time flew by their hearts grew younger

Being nourished of dreams that banish hunger

They see no need of wings for flight

A swift cavalry of brilliant knights

That ride from victory into the light

 

A mighty folk happy and brave

Who knead up trouble to make their cake

Ever towards danger to make their save

From forest fires to a sunlit lake

 

A strange light lit up their graves

To tell us they didn't live as slaves

To the mundane they remained untamed

And embraced immortality when it came
