[bodytext] => beneath the shadow of the cross i kneel and whisper prayers be my guide when i am lost hold my hand and ease my fears stain glass window, smoky light the priest is by my side to battle i will go tonight and try to turn the tide the cathedral stands silent as death the men all wait outside the priest comes out, our souls to bless and to the storm we ride the enemy waits, an evil horde twenty thousand strong but we we're chosen by the lord we will right this wrong i ride across our frontline our numbers fierce but small i scream my words to rouse the men for country and for God the battles joined, the enemy swarms like beasts from hell they fight i scream for God to guide my sword i know that we are right a sea of bloody faces flow but we will turn the tide stinging rain, the wind does blow lightning flashes in the sky with strength we battle through the night to slay the horrid beasts 'till the rays of morning light breaking in the east in the middle of the fray i see a mighty cross the men are yelling victory although the cause seems lost i pull the reigns and steer my mount towards the cross i ride i'm killing men a hundred count a hail of arrows fly wounded, to the ground i fall engulfed in searing pain beneath the shadow of the cross my crumpled body lay the ocean of the enemy has dwindled to a stream the men are yelling victory i smile like a dream i struggle then to gain my feet so i can kneel and pray beneath the shadow of the cross we have won the day [comments] => 8 [counter] => 283 [topic] => 57 [informant] => doug [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => war )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
