Selection of Poetry - Vol. 18

6th of Wzuvar ag Byvca, 443 E.S.

 


 

See the Warmth

 

Yonder stood the lilacs clear

With blessed purple pedal.

Field of ripe awaited pollen,

Yearning to be spread.

 

Sun over yon meadow breaks,

With orange illumination.

The cock crows at first light,

Telling all to come awake.

 

What beauty doth this world behold,

There are stories yet to be told.

If you simply go and look around,

There are many joys to be found.

 


 

Utop a Tower

 

Wan fair maiden perches atop the tower,

Eyes dulled as she rested there.

For no truth did this woman behold,

The world was mute and stagnate.

 

What poor lost soul did she command,

Her form was stale and depleted.

For she had lost all hope of escape,

Trapped away inside a high tower.

 

Never to feel the grass on her toes,

She wept and wept and wept.

“Oh dear Lord, release me so”

The voice echoed off cold stone.

 

So she sat, in horrid repair,

Her muscles ached with longing,

To go out there, to smell fresh air,

Anything to set her free.

 

A voice then called out,

“Oh you, up in the tower.”

The voice of one not sick,

The voice of one to help.

 

How that person set her free,

Unshackling her chains so that

She may make her escape. 

Out of the tower, out into the world.

 

Her toes finally touched the dirt,

The moistness, coolness of the ground.

Each blade of grass tickled her foot,

As they fell in between her toes. 

 

So she was set free, 

The one who was trapped in the tower.

Wan fair maiden finding health

Within the fields of flowers.

 

And finally the truth was revealed,

As she spun through the meadow.

The one that was one a bland speck,

Did burst forth with color and life.

 


 

Foundation of the Son

 

Awake, Awake, feel the earth shake.

The roar of a thousand footsteps,

Marching to the rhythm.

 

Rise, Rise, lift up your eyes.

The growing of a young man,

Training for the Throne.

 

Ward, Ward, raise up your sword.

To serve your future king,

Swearing to the oath.

 

A once fractured glimpse,

Our own Grand Prince,

We find ourselves made whole.

 


Signed,

Borris Iver Kortrevich, KML
