The Tree


One under welkins
Won by standing still
Steadfast under stars
Stood fore God's will.

Heroes met ends
On the heath spears
Both fiends and friends
The fate of years.

If only the fouse
Fighters in gleam
Upheaved their boughs
Like the Heaven's beam:

Bound in his blessed
Unbrittle wood
Over tall the tallest
Terror withstood.

His weighed upward
Wielded through the fray
Limbs to the Lord
And lived another day.


Welkins: skies
Beam: Tree
Fouse: eager

Interesting.  I see your profile says you are a learner, but perhaps should have a  
/teacher following that.

Thanks for sharing.

Very intersesting poem.  Thanks for  putting the meaning to those words in there - they are NEW to me!   It is a little off balance but if that is  your style, don't change it for anybody.  Hope to see more of your work.
