Best Shield Poems

A clenching of our hands,  
A clinging of our bands.  
The sweet aroma of your strawberry-coated strands,  
Allow my capability to disarm your fragility.  

Pent-up anticipation will meet expectation,  
You adorn your shield-maiden attire,  
Encouragement to set your onyx...

As the Nordic gods all gathered around
for there is a treasure that I have found
The Celtic gods all came as well
To listen to what I had to tell

For the Fenris Wolf has been unleashed
no one shall save Odin from this beast
Both the gods of Aesir...

the Lord gives us a shield of faith
he protects us at all costs
he picks us up when all else seems lost
he  sheilds us   from the sun rays
and from the the perils in our days
he is our deliverer  he makes us ...

Shield Love - Quatrain - A Collaboration

Embrace me In your soft tender arms.
Holding close within meek tenderness.
In close embrace I feel your soft charms,
I await the touch of your caress.

Shield me from life's hate,
On my knees Love's dying.
Do not hesitate,
From soft eyes tears crying.

Love's fights...

Shield Maiden

I have dreamed of the battle;
And truly I have heard,
The ring of sword upon sword;
And tasted blood between my teeth.

I have met the enemy head on;
And vanquished him.
But not before his blows;
Knocked me time and time again, to my knees.

I have defended hearth and...

Captain America’s shield of justice
Is more than a symbol of law and order,
It stands for all that is brave and true
In America – from border to border!
It says that criminality is unacceptable
Whether at the lowest or highest levels,
That evil and lawlessness shall not stand
As in...

Time pauses; your heart is breaking,
and you feel each minute detail.
Yet the truth of the matter is;
dreams and wishes rarely prevail.

You cannot see beyond his lies,
blinded by their masking effect.
And anchored in reality;
hope forgives moments of neglect.

Love's song is sung as a duet
orchestrated by happy...

The light that guides me on my way
while breezes blow and flowers sway;
the touch that calms my weary head 
when I am hanging by a thread;
the voice that soothes me into sleep,
and urges Him my soul to keep;
for all the blessings you bestow
pray God, may...

The Heart Is Not A Shield
by Rick Rucker

The Heart is not a shield,
Nor a weapon does it wield!

It doesn't stand a chance,
Against a BB gun, or lance!

You can lock it, tight away,
Not let it see the light of day,

But then, you would find,
That those who...

Upon the Earth in sky or sea, n'er lived
a fairer wonder formed, than such as she. 
Oh, Shield Mate, Mother Mary, child of Eve
who is reborn each age, when hope revives. 

So soft the breath of human life arrives
awesome in the pearly froth, the sea
a...

Fierce is she with flowing mane
No stranger to feel or witness pain

Fast she stands with shield in hand
Defender of her sacred lands

And full prepared to bring an end
To any who would dare offend

With shaft of glistening, speeding light
Fired from bow with deadly sight

The Maiden stands...

A kind of cultural sensitivity,
that strengthens discovery; a space
for identity and history.

  It’s a style of thought,
  chosen to highlight its core;
  A lengthy discourse that
  acts and synthesizes.

Significant efforts that deal 
with elements of change.
It’s a trend to implicitness
that evolves...

Each day we need our armor for the fight,
to wage the battle from daybreak to night ~
protection to wield.

The struggle is against not flesh and blood
but evil forces; enemies of God
souls, the battlefield.

The belt of truth fastened, the strong breastplate
of godliness, gospel boots laced up...
