The Sword and Rose by Scott M Pratchner Standing on this ledge now so frightened and unsure with the clouds boiling over The two spirits deep inside guide me to the sun and my fear ebbs like the tide Father, oh Father You have given me the sword and have taught me to survive with honor in this war when the autumn winds cease to blow and the sun reclaims the sky I'll have you to thank for what I know Mother, oh Mother You have given me the rose and have shown that loving acts can also win the day when my sword is broken through and the ocean pulls me down The rose will lift me back to what is true Standing on this ledge now so frightened and unsure with the clouds boiling over The two spirits deep inside guide me to the sun and my fear ebbs like the tide 01/12/2000 Posted on 09/25/2001 Copyright © 2024 Scott M Pratchner Member Comments on this Poem Posted by Amy Niggel on 12/06/02 at 05:17 PM I like this alot very moving thank you!!
