David's Song

It’s been too long since I’ve added something to the Library…..here’s something I wrote for someone I expect to see again.

When I was just a tiny girl,
My papa oft would say
“Clouds mean gales a-coming,
And there’s lightning on the way.
So run, set out the barrels,
We’ll have water clean and true.
There’s nothing quite so fierce as can’t make one good thing or two.”

So rage on, weather! I’ll take all that you can do! There’s nothing quite so fierce as can’t make one good thing or two.

I met a man named David
And I saw those axes swing.
They found home in flesh and armor
With metal they did ring.
But he killed for all of Nexus
He fought for me and you.
There’s nothing quite so fierce as can’t make one good thing or two.

Chorus

He’s killed manticores and ogres,
Gentle Breathtaker all they see.
As he swings it true and steady
Before him monsters flee.
And the field is cleared for those of us
To do what we must do.
There’s nothing quite so fierce as can’t make one good thing or two.

Chorus

The dark lords they will tremble
When they see his army strong.
He’s legions of the Seekers
And all I have’s my song.
And I pray he somehow hears it
As my heart aches strong and true.
There’s nothing quite so fierce as can’t make one good thing or two.

Chorus

David had to leave us
He strode off into the dark.
Where he fights for light and freedom
As hope’s one shining spark.
But I know that he’ll come back to me
And somehow he’ll make it through.
There’s nothing quite so fierce as can’t make one good thing or two.
