Clouds part before her – not much more than a child
A light stirred within her – saw more than with eyes
A world, people in peril – knew not their sad plight
Dark nameless forces – in strength – had sent forth their call:
To war!
From town and from home was pulled – unhappy
Unknown plains and water before her – lost
A season or two it would take her – past childhood
Still move on she must – doomed she was – to hope
