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
