Keep Your Aim In Sight Poem by duncan wyllie
Keep Your Aim In Sight
He stood there with the force,
Of heavens strength around
Face of child, with true light,
Upon this rocky ground
Guided towards a cavern
So dark he could not see
Then a shaft of light pierced the clouds
This Saint was sent by thee
His white horse brayed and nodded,
With anticipation
Ready for the fight
This Chosen revelation
“Keep your aim in sight
Sever darkness from the light”
One last deep breath in
Banished now his fear
Right arm branding sword, held close,
Shed not a single tear
Shield in left hand flashing
As lightning led the way
Horses eyes of blue fire
A cross now on display
The Gallops sound like thunder
But the silence contained within
He’d come to rescue those captured
And the dragon waits for him
Shards of glass -like rain
He draws nearer to the cave
They fall but, there is no pain
Not touching Saint so brave.
He approaches then dismounts
He can smell its fiery breath
Then opens up a scroll
Release captives from their death! ! ! !
The Dragon came at him
But the Saint He did not move
And a host of heavenly angels
The circle can’t be moved
They opened up their hands
Added light to the firey sword
As it raced to the dragons heart
Captive’s life now restored
The dragon disappears
Flowers pave the way
And back into the shaft of light
This Saint now born new day

Duncan, a great narrative poem. I really liked this. Kept me reading all the way through. Great subject matter that is dear to my heart. Thanks for pointing me in its direction and letting me share it. David
Well articulated and nicely embellished with poetic rhyme and rhythm. A beautiful piece of poetry.
A lot of vivid images and involvment of sensory perceptions. The contrasts are also very effective. Another fine piece of work.
A wonderful poem Duncan, it has a lovely flow and great subject matter. '10' Andrew
An astoundingly well crafted work, Duncan! You're attention to detail and your vivid imagery are beautiful and provocative. ~Ray
