You Were A Warrior
You were a warrior
you always stood your ground
the battles you fought
you always won
You were the guide
that led them through the night
the moon was your mathematics
the stars they helped you plan
You traveled many shores
Faraway and distant lands
You were the watcher
who never grew tired
It was you
who let them sleep
Fiercely protective
a green eyed wolf
stood loyal by your side
when you bathed in the river
you swam with the tide
sun kissed skin
you hair as dark as night
You were the warrior
who made magic with your hands
You traveled many shores
To faraway lands
You were the watcher
who led them by day
You were the watcher
who let the children play
running thru tall grass
and fields of clover
Swift to end injustice
Your foes never
stood a chance
Yet, you were never cruel
Always gentle, always kind
This was the vision of you
when I traveled
back in time
You were a warrior
the battles you fought
you always won.
You were a legend
who lived to
carry on.
