Black Wings Stir

by Clan Storm-Shield

Another one-shot poem, this time not based on any of the Skyrim bard songs. Leave a review or make a suggestion! This is my first original poem outside of school assignments, so be fair.

p style="text-align: center;"Here in the cold, the Black Wings do stir,/p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;"Creating darkness and death./p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;"Here in old Skyrim, awakens the Thur,/p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;"And no one can stop all the death./p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;"The Wyrms burn our fields and our homes and our kin,/p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;"Taking our lives and our hope./p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;"We Nords of Sky's Rim, now we begin,/p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;"To lose all our faith and our hope./p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;"These days, these nights, they are the End Times./p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;"The prophecies are now ringing true./p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;"And if one is right of these times,/p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;"Then the rest all must be too./p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;"Save us, Ysmir, our kin and our king!/p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;"We call to you now, at the dragon's rising!/p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;"Save us, O Ysmir, for the hour is late,/p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;"O save us from Alduin's hate./p
