Fear not
for in thy soul
In the gut of thee,  
lies courage...
strength

Lies hope...

They say a knight knows no fear
For fear doth not be of a knight
Coward...sayeth thee...

Surely I know’st not to be.

A man...just a man
A man of heart, soul
Of fear, of hurt and tears
a mortal with scars

Stand tall knight
as thy blade doth add
great weight of thy
courage...

Nay....sayeth I
My burden, though great
though humbling...

I carry most proudly
For I, this knight.... share the burden of the world

I lie my shield,
                    my sword, my heart...
                                                     at thy feet

Forgive me....I am expressing humility...

He doesn't know what humility is....and
being grateful for what one has...

Be patient....

The right one will have to grow some
first.....

Thanx Helen...
