The Wind Sings to the Warrior Trills by Kalila

Merit for January 2008

They hear the rushing wind sing,
"Prepare for battle about to start!
Go fast! Be fleet of wing.
Be strong of arm and strong of heart."

Well forged armour, beautifully shined,
weapons honed, and feathers gleaming.
Like battle banners the wind makes wind,
embroidered robes are streaming.

Soon the winds let loose a battle cry,
"Fight with sword! Sing with lyre!
Fight with Tahto! Raise your symbol high!
Blast with cleansing Empyreal fire."

Celestia calls
gentle hearts to fight.
A flying warrior falls
in defense of the Light.
