All in the Name of Love

She rides across the rainbow On a winged and painted horse Just and kind with peace of mind And only love to steer her course A bright Angel here on Earth But she carries shield and sword Calmly weighed and unafraid Of the fate she's heading toward Riding to the gates of Hell To catch evil by surprise She'll battle there without a care Dismissing her own demise Staring long into the abyss Knowing well what she will find But still she'll fight with all her might For the sake of all mankind She pretends to be no Goddess Only a Queen without a crown Draws her sword on the demon hoard And one by one she puts them down Lightning flashes from her eyes Her heart beats loud as thunder A look of grace upon her face As we all watch in wonder

Kind of digging this one. It's probably a black horse. Into the "faves", as they're want to say ... in this place, which is probably Purgatory.

Thanks Candide, it's just your typical good versus evil tale. I always liked the look of a strong, independent woman on a horse, any color. It's my country roots coming out in me I suspect. I appreciate the positive feedback.
