The Poet

You carve your piece patiently with your paper and pen 
To represent in your banner's name, like in game 
What you do may not be appreciated 
But in this field, you somewhat lift your banner's name 

Sometimes you triumph, sometimes you don't 
But you raise your banner in every piece you make 
You may not be revered for what you do 
But you exalt your banner for every challenge you take 

For what you do may be voluntary 
But you represent in your banner's honor 
Even if at times, you feel you are not well 
You try to dazzle with whole might and valor
