Author's note: Here is the second poem I wrote. This one is about the raid on Miraz's castle. I wrote this poem over a year ago, and now, looking back, I realize that Peter really wasn't fighting for Aslan during the raid. But I think the rest of the Narnians were, and Edmund certainly was. So I didn't change the words. I don't think it would be the same if I did. But you can read it and judge for yourself. :)
Fighting for Aslan
by narniagirl11
Storming the castle
Was Peter's brilliant tactic
Sneaking through the night
Narnians attacked their foes
While the Telmarines dozed
Fighting for their dear homeland,
Fighting for their Kings,
Fighting for Aslan.
Swords clashing, nearby,
"For Narnia!" came the cry.
Panicked soldiers fled
Peter and Caspian fought
'Till victory seemed hopeless
Fighting for their dear homeland,
Fighting for their Kings,
Fighting for Aslan.
"The gate!" Edmund cried,
The gate was falling swiftly,
"Retreat!" yelled Peter.
Leaping the bridge on his horse,
Peter made it to safety.
Fighting for their dear homeland,
Fighting for their Kings,
Fighting for Aslan.
But sadly that day
Peter's brilliant tactic failed,
Many Narnians fell
To swords of the enemy
Never to arise again
Fighting for their dear homeland,
Fighting for their Kings,
Fighting for Aslan.
Later they captured,
Their troublesome enemies
Narnia triumphed
Over her captors and foes
And Caspian was crowned king
Fighting for their dear homeland,
Fighting for their Kings,
Fighting for Aslan.
At last it was time
For the Kings and Queens to leave
Peter and Susan,
Edmund and Lucy whirled home.
They would always remember,
Fighting for their dear homeland,
Fighting for their Kings,
Fighting for Aslan.
