We Weather all Weather

Tenebrous nights, encased in all black,

No longer bleed terror, for you have my back.

The tundra Antarctic; a blaze born in Hell,

No discordant weather dare wither my shell.

 

Send dragons, send demons, armada I call!

No army of malice could e'er breach my wall.

For love built these ramparts, and crafted this stone,

And imbued the magic that two souls have sown.

Your hand on my heartstrings, your lips brush my ear,

What God need protect me, when you slay my fear?

I love the rhyme of this piece it just flows so well. It is really sweet too. A love that gives courage is a good love indeed. I do love your last line though but mainly because i have a biased view of trusting the living over the unknown variables. Nice work.

Thank you very much Lindsey! Personified faith is truly much more powerful than the ethereal :)

[Avoiry]

I agree completely with that statement.

[TL Boehm]

a beautiful treatment of the theme regarding one's love/protector. I think the second stanza is my favorite.

[Wandering Minstrel]

Solid love would be a good title too for this poem, Matt. Been there, felt these emotions. He can protect me....from all things. I need nothing else. So very true.
Nice one.

This is just fabulous! I love how nothing can bring you down, that you have the protection and love you need to conquer all. Very poetic, one of my favorites.

A delightful ode to love, a poetic way of describing a sense of security drawn from the love of another.
