The ancient guardians of the land <br />Supernal warriors of the past <br />are waiting still I understand <br />‘Til they are called to protect us. <br /> <br />From some new threat we have to face. <br />Just when it seems that we must fail. <br />The long dead champions of our race <br /> will join our ranks: We will prevail. <br /> <br />King Arthur and his band of knights <br />and Hereward will wake again. <br />The victors of forgotten fights <br />will swell our ranks; none will abstain. <br /> <br />So let our enemies beware. <br /> The Lion roars defiance still, <br />the guardians are yet taking care. <br /> They always have and always will. <br /> <br />27-Dec-07<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-lion-roars-for-m-lady-ernestine/
