In due time
the King emerged
to reclaim
lost throne
from defeat
and lead the troops
to regain lost lands
from the foes
who know nothing
but deceit.
As the King
rode to battle;
the people
the troops
and the King himself
had one thing
in mind
and it was…
“We shall rise.”
Happy New Year! 🙂

Lord Emmanuel 
simple lines,
a story on army,
the imagery is always powerfully shiny.
Happy 2015.
Very well.. so shall we!
A very wishful message portrayed with your words..
May you soon get to drink from the goblet of success!

Oh yeeesss!! And that’s what a true leader is made of!! And THAT is what unity is all about!
Some awesome messages in this poem, Em… your writing really has power in it!
Yes WE shall 🙂
And my face shall know war – lot to said for the battles of those that rise and feel the pain
Nice one shot…we shall rise..is always good and positive 🙂
Yes now a days the so called king
Doesn’t do a thing
But hide behind an army of lawyers and such
As lifting a finger would be to much
But rising hopefully will take place
If the steps we retrace
Nice one shot you showed today
Here at your way
nice…rising is a good direction…if only such a king would come…smiles.
There is nothing more motivating than determination. Thank you for sharing. 😀
full of power, this is… “we shall rise” strong words man
you know – this is what i love about those kings..they lead their people in the battle – riding ahead of them…thinking of king david for example…nowadays things have changed and may it be good or bad – but i think it’s different when you follow your king..good write…and i wonder about your hair…smiles
