The Realm
(Submitted by: Morngrym)


     We live in the Savage Land
     A place that indeed does justice
     To the name it has been given
     Yet it is so full of beauty and wisdom
     Still, the gentle must take up arms
     Such a strange contradiction.


     We seek a calm, through aggressive actions
     The sheathing of thirsty conflict
     Elusive to us all...as bright shadows
     Escaping through our ever-grasping hands
     As our hearty determination grows
     We stem the murky tide...as best we can
     With swords and shields and outstretched bows


     One fine day we shall cast our weapons aside
     Finding the hidden peace we long for
     Within autumn's colorful woods
     And lie in the bed that has been made
     Like a scarlet rose, living in the warm sun
     No more wilting in the shade.
