Unimagined Vanquish

Winning strength needs only modest display Our triumph drawn from hunger within us Rival forces bear relentless foray Battle needs bold face of festered brilliance With dogged raw tooth fight, brandish valour Weapons are extensions of fortitude Victors despite opponents' callibre Our status of formidable renewed Serving King, to idea of self - strangers Fortess protection our blood's excitement Unrelented vengeance takes couragous Formation untouched behind our pikemen Bravely defend her status, safe harbour Cease attack when field strewn with cadavers 6th September 2020 Warrior Sonnet Sponsor : John Lawless

Well done Sonnet - I don't know about you but it certainly makes me want to charge right up that hill (Not). I enjoyed reading this Sigrid; good luck in John's contest. mm

Yeah, because I'm keen to have my 'cadaver' trampled into the mud by a dozen horses!
