Lie To Me : Rondine

Lie to me about beautiful things,

of green sea, of winter land,

of a fairy’s magical wand,

of olive trees in jungle within,

of unforgettable memorable spring,

holding hands in hands,

lie to me.

Flying on ethereal wings,

journeying across the sands,

crossing the time’s strands,

where an angel sings,

lie to me.
For IGWRT. Quote, I chose for the prompt is, ' “Hello. I'm Leonard Nimoy. The following tale of alien encounters is true. And by true, I mean false. It's all lies. But they're entertaining lies. And in the end, isn't that the real truth? The answer is: No."- Leonardo Nemoy
