Balveen Cheema Poet Narrative

Joan of Arc

Joan Of Arc

I loved my country, my brethren more dearer
Saved my country from onslaughter of the wicked
In the deadliest of nights by forewarnings of gods 
The gaping elders blessed their valorous commander
The enemies dwarfed by a power more gigantic.

The mutual protection of my divine guardians and I
For a country that nurtured and nourished peace
Harmony of my kingdom above all to be protected 
Thwarted we with vengeance the trespassers
Lured to our throne and drooling for crown.

Thundering aliens brainwashed the pristine
Dragged and whipped me in a celebratory cry
Froze I on the stake as Jesus on the cross
Tall flames to purification as I reached salvation
Patriots decried while betrayers quipped damnation.

No regrets no disdain, I loved my country true
I no sorceress, I know no witchcraft, nor an angel I
Endeavoured on a path whispered by heavens
Mary heard His message, so did I
One the Blessed, One the Cursed!
