A Light in the Woods
by merlyn on Sep.21, 2006, under Poetry
A place…in the woods,
A shining beacon,
Virtues followed,
even worshipped.
Knights in armor,
protecting, watching…
The town, a refuge
for those who are lost,
for those who value,
for those who love…
Goodness, light,
a beacon in the night,
against the darkness,
against chaos and murder.
Alone, abandoned by power,
One last place to live,
in sunlight, in peace.
One last place to fight,
side by side,
shoulder to shoulder,
Brothers and sisters
in Virtue, in light.
Author’s note: This was written by me a long, long time ago for an MMORPG involving a community called Wispwood Shire. This is probably one of my first published poems on the internet, dating back to approx. 2002
