War and Allegiance
It was there, in lands afar, where
War knew nothing of disdain and mar
Where winds wafted zest amongst cavalry,
And dignity was a line drawn upon rivalry
It was a time when death beheld justice,
And when the sinful held torment for injustice
It was when nobility was a statue of gold,
And when religion, in word and action, was told
There was infidelity yes! Disloyalty, and deceit,
But goodness then, would always be there to compete
It is death today… it is venom in blood,
It is only plight, and fear of all but God…
