My Life, I Give To Thee |

My King, I come to thee as thy humble knight to tell of that which ye wish not to hear. Before the dawn of the third day as the rise of the red sun touches the clouds above our heads. We, my lord, all of us... will be struggling to quell the flow of battle raining down, as rain does fall upon the killing fields. The armies of two countries march as I speak. Riding lathered steeds, blood in their eyes, seeking death and defeat of all thy realm. Cursed is thy name to those that come against us. My lord, though I may not live to see the morn after… I stand at thy side, as thy servant, faithful to all there is before me, to the seas at the great white cliffs beyond the forest green, the mountains high. As far as my eyes can see beyond the tears that stream from my face. I give to you my life, blood of my heart, my soul in this hour of great peril. |

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Barry, this is wonderful, sweet friend, I love it, indeed these are times of great peril but love can always perservere and it is all we need to feel strong and happy inside! (sigh) This is sensitive and beautiful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Brave Knight you are the blade that stands strong the lance that reaches beyond grasps the armor that broucades the horizon in safety but of all this, you shall forever stay a Knight for you know the blood of the faithful. jeff |
