In crystal cave of isolation
Heartbeat thundering in his ears
Pendragon loathe to incantation
A debt exacted, in arrears
.
Deft in magick, Morgan Le Fey
Did trap poor Merlin, there to keep
Oh ‘twas a fated, dreadful day
She cast that spell of ice-cold sleep
.
Wizard waiting, ‘neath winter’s white
Frozen, seemingly undisturbed
Then when spring came, he saw the light
Quick and clever, beyond perturbed
.
He mustered all his strength, his will
Within that crystal cave of keeping
He caused the light to bend, until
Thawed at last, his cloak was sweeping
.
From out of wicked shadows born
He sought the one who’d captured him
At court she spied him, most forlorn
Desperate, she enraptured him
.
Merlin, blind to all her charms
He’d n’er again, by her, be swayed
Fearful he’d beget her harm
She backed away, into the blade
.
Arthur, stunned by wicked ruse
N’er knew just what occurred that day
Excalibur did run clean through
The wretched witch, Morgan Le Fey
.
