Protectors In the Sky

Archers in the cold rain Holding their bows steady Ready to strike at will Warriors, the sturdiest Women of holy peace Protecting the innocent Seen in the skies today Watching over the pure Keeping the weak safe Archers of light and hope Women warriors of heart Timeless beings secured

I like this one about the women of holy peace. I pray for peace, but people do not listen. I enjoyed reading this tonight.
