Warrior In Hearth
Sacred sword in
one hand,
Slender and yet filled with mysterious magic,
Ancient inscription endured an untold history,
Entire surface glowed with mystical power,
Enchanted shield in another,
Possessed the unknown power of the Gods,
Decorated with rubies, sapphires and diamonds,
Created of the strongest steel through out time,
Sculpture chin tilts upward all too proud,
Every muscle displays unimaginably strenght,
Arm raise whilst clinching weapon too tight,
Deep blue eyes stare out far beyond the clouds,
Whispering an enchanting spell now and again,
More than ready for any glorious battle foreseen,
Waiting anxiously for any divinely sign in the sky,
Striking courageously upon demons and foes,
Tire and weary drained every muscle to the bone,
All battles are won and will always be winning,
On bended knees, precious sword still in hand,
Brave spirit'll fight on till the end of time.
