this is a poem of mine that I just wrote. Tentatively,I am titling it 'Battle-song'

Battle-longing takes hold
Can you resist?
Don your armour,raise sword,heft shield
You are called
The field beckons
Battle awaits

Battle-longing calls
Hear the horn afar blow
The notes tug at your heart
Will you answer the summons?
Will you heed the call?

Don your armour,heft your shield,raise your sword
Find your helm and cloak
The horn is sounded, the summons given
You are called,you are compelled
Battle-longing has taken hold

Battle-longing is answered
Take you to the road
Maps and charts left at home
No need for them where you go
Your heart and feet know the way

Battle-longing calls
The notes echo in your soul,resound through the air
You are here
Once more the horn-call sounds
Get you to the field
Your heart and feet know the way
Battle awaits
And there are friends and foes to meet
Battle-song is heard

True wisdom is not measured by the years one has walked the earth,but by the knowledge gained and the things seen during that time.

It is not who you are born that makes the difference, but who you choose to become

I wrote it for all warriors of the sword and was inspired by my restlessness for the upcoming Octoberfest
