SciFi and Fantasy Art: The Knights Story

Another attempt at a poem. Perhaps not quite as good as the previous one, but I got inspired by all your kind words.

As morning light suppress the dark,
Brings warmth upon my face.
Our foes steps out in endless rows,
They greet us with a gaze.

Across the fields and past the well,
They scurry, jump and crawl.
Our swords are drawn, awaiting hell,
We can not count them all.

Though in a group, I stand alone,
Our enemies make ground.
As orchs and goblins, growl and moan,
I hear their fearful sound.

Then arrows hit us from the sky,
My comrades start to fall.
We raise our shields, let out a cry,
And charge them, giving all.

To beating drums and sounds of war,
The land gets soaked in blood.
As monsters fall, they'll be no more,
Then corpses in the mud.

This final stand, will always be,
The thing I see at night.
Those friends we lost, they set us free,
Then went into the light.

I really like the poem. It really fits (spelling?) with the picture. Your poem makes me calm inside. Thank you, I needed that! 12

:-) Nicklas Lundqvist replies: "Thank you for leaving the first comment Loona. It's quite hard to get both the flow and the content right in a poem, and I think that's what you're refering to, right? "

Swords kinda small even 4 a shortsword (another thing: Knights dont wield shortswords but 2handers).

:-) Nicklas Lundqvist replies: "Apparantly this knight does though... how unknightly of him. We should report him to the knights council at once, should we not? You leed the way... "

It goes great with the picture. I think your sword is just long enough. I won't report you. haha

:-) Nicklas Lundqvist replies: "I was so worried for a while that the sword would fall outside the "standards". That would have been the end of me. I'm so happy it passed the "Stella sword inspection quality check". "

I don't know what I like most, the drawing or the poem.
Keep up the good work!

:-) Nicklas Lundqvist replies: "I'm perfectly fine with you enjoying them both. Why choose? Thank you! "
