Echoes Of Urd - Poem

in #poem6 months ago

Careful now the arrows are falling
Run for the hills the forest is calling
Sound the alarm the enemy is mauling
Gather the men and start the killing

Battle rages with children screaming
We slept too much while they were scheming
Now we chase the flames still gleaming
Wake up now no time for dreaming

Stand up now and get to swinging
Clashing swords the air is ringing
Our ancestors begin their singing
Now they face what we're bringing

The drums of fate are loudly beating
No time left for silent pleading
The earth itself begins its bleeding
Yet from the ash, truth starts proceeding

Eyes once blind now burn with knowing
Ancient winds have started blowing
From broken myths, new roots are growing
Stand now our strength is flowing

Earth drinks up the blood that's spilling
The warnings of our past are filling
Call the brave, the fierce, the willing
Strike down those who come in kneeling

The battle slows, the sky is turning
The winds are still, the flames are burning
We stand, unsure, the ground is churning
What fate awaits us, still discerning

Nightfall rises, the future is dawning
Through smoke and ash, a new world spawning
We stand as one, despite our mourning
A silent oath, forever guiding
