To All of You
As the subject suggests, this one goes out to all of you. Thanks for being there, and know that I'm here, whether for listening, advising, relaxing, chauffeuring, or just good ol'-fashioned partying ;) And for whatever-you-believe-in's sake, leave comments! I like getting feedback from my work; it lets me know how I can improve.
Gather 'round, o people ye
Hear my voice this day
I come to neither preach nor pry--
A bard who won't long stay.
I'll tell a tale, this eve divine;
Take of it what you will.
I ask for but a list'ning ear--
There are no strings nor frills.
Once upon an age ago,
When hope was nearly gone,
The Dark Queen saw within her grasp
The cont'nent Ansalon.
Cities great and true did fall,
Regardless of their lord;
The Dark Queen's armies caréd not
Which race's flesh they gored.
The realms of elves and dwarves and men
Were shattered by this storm,
But from the carnage-spewing forth,
A band of heroes formed.
They knew not what their futures held,
Naught of their destinies,
And still they set about their quest
To set their peoples free.
Through Dragonfire and endless death
They journeyed long and far
Each obstacle they overcame
Help'd change the tide of war.
Despite their many suff'rings
And two who breathed their last,
The heroes grew e'er closer
To each other and their past.
The Dark Queen could not stop the will
Of such a determined crew
Their dedication to each other
Did fin'lly see them through.
I use the heroes' tale tonight
In hope you all might hear:
Remember well your friends in need
And those who you hold dear.
No more precious thing exists
Than friends who will hold true;
Draw courage from their steadfastness,
As they may draw from you.
