Poem of Arden

About

The Poem of Arden is a working poem for one of the great cities from my fantasy series. Arden is a port city on the southeast coast of mainland Thera. An epicenter for trade, welcoming to all, and the home of Haribon, a symbol of peace in the south. The origins of Haribon and the peace that endured in the south has roots dating back centuries.

Poem of Arden

Of salt kissed winds

Where seals chase ships

The forest meets the sea

In the sea of the Harrowing Deep

 

Of canals and streets of dirt and stone

Where man and creature share a home

Civilization and nature meet

In the city on the sea

 

From the North, settlers fled

To the safety of the Southern West

During the war-torn early fourth age

And build there, a haven

 

Port Arden, the city of prosperity
