Again Her Will See

Again Her Will See While I was running on a long gauntlet Did see what appeared to be a lance lit By sun which had been reflecting on Then few seconds later reflection was gone. Although I was somewhat rather inept His challenge now was willing to accept By throwing my grey glove into the ring Hearing fighters who had started to sing. Horse was gallant preferring to prance While I carried a sword and long lance Which bore the scarf of a loved one Just before big battle had begun. On anyone hope not to be an imposition If I were never in a proper position We had come to commit battle in a field First before God we all silently kneeled. Give us much courage without despair Help so all of the pain we can bare And if at end I happen and do die Take me to heaven high in the sky. God, help loved one I have left behind Let her be safe with much peace of mind My beautiful bride who He meant for me In heaven again her I surely will see. James Thomas Horn, Retired Soldier
