Avalon |
Pick yourself up and take a fresh step,
take a new breath and start once again.
Days will still come and rains will still fall
and nothing will rid you of pain.
Go forth into sunlight like knights of the old
who battled the world with their armour
Do exactly as they when they strode into battle
with courage and hope and true valour.
No less is this world that we now reside in
from the days when the dragons did fly
Demons still live and the knights still take heed
of the words that the prophets do cry.
The kinship still lives between those of us now
who share the great honour of gallantry
A dying aged art that wanes with each year
bestowed upon us who own chivalry
The moment of truth will always arrive
to test those that touch its pure light
The forger will fail, intendment revealed
the true left to contest in the fight.
Stand tall on the merit abound in our souls
that the world need not ever be privy
A heart that is noble, a mind that knows truth
a virtuous intent t’ward civility.
Go forth into daylight, adventure each day
allow life to billow your sails
Keep your arms dry and your armour repaired
and your enemies shall never prevail
Seek out the Princesses that honestly beckon
to be saved from the unkind discord
Thence will arrive the prize you deserve
and happiness will be your reward.
