In the musty air
Above the misty lake
Sat the four brethren
A proud four stakes
Four stakes against water
Four stakes against ice
Four stakes against beasts birds and eyes.
They all knew their purpose
They each knew why
Each one shared a method--
Protection from the sky
So cozy for a mallard
So safe for the unspry
So guarded against malice
And hungry, prying eyes.
