They stood like warriors erect from war
walking in shadows they all marched
finding what they did
and hide favors they got away
watching them I take my breath
and fading to the night,
they wait for enemies to sight
looking for patrol they ride
begining to take leave and bride
women for whom they take to wife
watching as warriors for the light
flowers fill there gated walk
leaning on pillars not stronger
lonely fallen angels plead again
warriors, they return with smiles
