PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Bright banners fluttered high in the warm summer breeze

     guards in armor bright do walk the battlements high

no travelers pass in through the gate

     the portcullus is down barring the way

not long the journey we had been on

     nor far the travels away from our home

yet when we left no one barred the way

     all then were welcome to freely come

we hail the watchmen in the towers gate

     bid that they would unbar the way

cold is the look that we do see

     they answered no you do not belong

all who are welcome are gathered within

     those who we summoned our already within

the gates will not open to you ever again

     go on your way be gone from here

turning we ride away from our home

     not understanding just what did change

that we’re not welcome here in our home

     the gates are barred and we’re sent away

and darkness falls as we right away

     and all our hopes do fade away

we feel lost at be cast out

     now we are rejected and know not why

warm summer days have now turn cold

     and days of spring are for ever gone

darkness deep now lies in our heart

     now as our home is forever lost
