With a snarl, the monster reared its ugly head.
The hero looked up at the beast's eyes, so red.
Once again, like a dragon the creature roared,
But the fearless hero unsheathed his sword.
A few quick swipes and this fight had come to an end.
The hero's will was far too strong to bend.
But then the monster rose again;
The hero knew the beast was in pain.
"Just one more swipe should slay this beast!
One tiny slice will make it a feast."
The creature struck with claws of steel.
"Oh, what pain this warrior feels!"
The hero fell, the end now real.
But what's this? Somehow the hero is healed!
Looking up he saw the one who had saved his life.
The creature attacked, but the hero drew his knife.
Soon enough the beast was slain,
And the hero met the healer who had taken away his pain.
With each day, the hero grows stronger;
He gains more courage and stays a bit longer.
All that came from the Angel of Love,
The one who healed him after coming from above.

What is life without poetry and adventure?
"Little sister" is just another way of saying "Guardian Angel"!
We do not stop playing because we grow ol

Great poem, I enjoyed it very much.

Sometimes we have to follow a stronger voice, even if it's silent.
