Warrior Poems: The Greater Good

Blade in hand

They dance the dance

Of Old Knight

Sir Galahad.

Championing a cause

That’s all but lost,

Achieving victory

At all cost.

Glory in death,

Immortalized in name,

Allowing common men,

To spread their fame.

This is the life,

A warrior must live.

For the greater good

His life he must give.

The wretched and weak

Are in his care.

To those that would do evil,

Beware

A warrior’s love

Is in his sword

Cleaving hearts

Harbingers of Discord

Dare cross his blade

Remember his name

For your blood will spill

And your life will fade

This is the life

A warrior must live

For the greater good

His life he must give.
