The beginning. The Distorting Mirror Kingdom

A little and pretty bird
Had twittered once the plot
of story. That's not dreams!
One time, as it was heard,
the whole unbounded world
was ruled by four wise Queens.

Those four unusual Queens
were mages and they took
a stringent sacred oath
to manage weather's streams
as said the main law's book.
They ruled the World by turn.

The first turn was Snow Queen's.
Her blizzards lulled the earth
and clothed the one with quilt.
The second was Brook Queen.
She melted down the snow
and watered earth with springs.

The third turn was Sun Queen's.
Her warmth inspired the earth
and dotted the one with bloom.
The last one was Haze Queen -
the oldest. Her grey fogs
washed earth dirt with the moon.

Each ruled before old clock
drops down the last star speck.
That is and nowadays.
The cycle is firmly scrolled.
No one is made to break
the law of cosmic space.
