This is a poem, from my 5 book fantasy series known as Of Atlantis, scheduled for release this fall

Lost so long ago, almost totally forgotten by mankind, almost lost to various chapters, of time, itself
The thought of something so magical, has no room in the rat race of man today
Through out all ancient societies, you will find reference to the amulet, and all it's magic and wealth
But something of this magnitude, has no place in the rushed life of mortal man today, as he works, as he plays.

From a race of super beings, from very long ago, almost being forgotten, over the infinite sands of time
Not born of this world, only mentioned in ruins of the ancients, only if you know where to look
Every civilization, makes reference to this magical pendant, each one guessing as to it's design
Even the ancients did not know, exactly from whence the amulet was taken, no reference in any ancient book.

This relic, made of substance, well it's power unless seen, the reality would be hard to believe
Harnessing something so powerful, it was stolen and brought here, amongst mankind, yes right here, right here being earth
It is said, the people that once held and possessed this thing of power, they were very nieve
Letting something so powerful, slip from there grasp, ending here on earth, mankind's very turf.

Lost for centuries, never being found, but all ancients knew at one time, this powerful device, well it's reputation was true
Why was it never found? Maybe it was so powerful, the ancients, themselves were afraid
To it's final resting place, well there existed only one clue
The Mayan, had the one clue, referring to Atlantis, but it is said, this wasn't the place of it's birth.

The Mayan, what records that were left, it is said this came from a super human race
A race of beings, more highly advanced, than the original ancients of this world
Said to house something of the Supreme Being, his self, something not of this time, not of this space
It is said mankind so feared this thing, all of it's secrets were never totally unfurled.

So the last reference was that made to it's existence in Atlantis, a place in it's own right mysterious and magical.
So, if we ever find Atlantis, we will find this thing the ancients, did not want to find because of fear.
A thing the ancients, thought it would be better if not found, because of the belief it was so magical
Now is the time to find the amulet, when found it's magic, it's purpose, I'm sure will be made very clear.

I would love to spend a day in the library of your mind that is were the real magic and treasures are In a place that pulls words together and shapes them like a magician with balloons that turn into fantastic creations this his how you manipulate words you truly are a wordsmith worthy of acknowledgement

My very best wishes and respect

As i read these interesting words,
Fascinated by the ancient-ones,again
I remember things about the dark lords..
And,i will say,indeed,some of them:
3 times,looking back,
2 the past,
5 let's now,a track..
10 circles,1 is lost..
Remains 0 [zero],nothing..
1 is breathing
Air,
2 comes next,
3 brings the Ether,
6...
And that river,
Called Stix
By greecs
Brough back
The past..
The living deaths..
"Qian" to the North,
Points the Sky..
Comes the 4th..
One's about to die..
"Kun" to the South,
Points the Earth..
Comes the 9,
Turns the clock,
Gives birth
13..
Tranformations..
The King of Air,
The Queen of Ether,
The other nightmare
Brings the terror,like a blare..
"Kan" to the East,
Points the Water...
Comes the 18,
The Moon,
Brings the beast..
Danger...
"Li" to the West,
Points the Fire,
Comes the 19,
The Sun,
Here's the test
For those who search the past
Of Atlantida's land
Burried under the Water
Who deep,
In the abyss,
Hide the seal..
"Gen" to the NorhEastern land,
Points the Mountain,
Comes the pilgrims,now..
And in their hand hold sand..
The fountain
Of the mind
Of ones who seek
Deep
Know the link..
"Xun" to the SouthEastern land,
Points the Wind,
Comes the devils who turn down
Everything that's saint,
15...
Turns the Justice down,
8..
Shows the fate...
"Zhen" to the NorthWestern land,
Points the Thunder,
Comes the people's screams
Who now
Screams more louder..
And the Peace is gone..
Wars after wars,
Blood over blood,
Locked are the doors
Of the living ones
Who now,
Sad,
Know what they lost..
"Dui" to the SouthWestern land,
Points the Lake,
And now..all it became alike the sand..
Yellow..as the plague..
21!
The darkness's lords
Are waiting..
The humans,
Stare at them
And shaking
Have nothing
To say..
The powers that came
Once with the evil..
The pride,brought shame..
The ancient's prophets,
Worshipping devil..
The world of the Atlantis
Now,lost,
Deep hidden in an abyss..
The power has a price..
A cost..
The underworld
Brought back something..
The sword..
Who took their breathing..
The amulets.as a miracle came,
Brough something magick..
But oh,
So tragic
Was their end..
Lost..
The power of the crystals,
Brough back the evil
And their magick whispers
In the echinonian
Language
Of the devil,
Corrupted their souls..
The average
Of pastand present,let behind
The misteries..
Better remain unknown,i say
Because,if found,
The magick day
The demons's sound
Of revenge
Could take control..
And then,that small change
In better,
Turns up-side-down..
And they'll reach their goal..
Better all to silence
To remain..
Because,its better this way..
The violence is no more..
All that remains is..
Another day..
Another day in which a smile
Show the sunrise of that sky
Once forgotten..and now,
The shadow of past,is gone..
The little bird's sound
The worries are gone..
The other part of life
Just starts to breathe
And the lungs take the fresh air
Deep..and,the whispers
Of the loved wife..
How sootheing..
The little baby,
Now is sleeping..
The eyes of the little dog,look back..
Look back to the open door..
The small key turns the lock
And now,its open..
The watcher's eyes,follow the little dog
Chasing the toy-- a duck!
Hehehe..and their's laughter of joy
Its heard,loud...
The neighbors,gather,and the crowd
Goes straight to the place..
That place,where they do the shoppings..
The children's smile,
Encharms their face,
They now see their parents coming..
Compare past with future now..
What impression u have?in that while
I gesticulate a wink with my eyebrow
Making you smile!
