In The Moonlight....













~I travel here any time I wish,

For it is here where I can practice my technique in solitude,

No one is here to bother or disturb me in any way,

The gentle sounds of nature are all that can be heard, apart from the small clatter of my sword

So it is here, that I hone my spirit in the dim moonlight.







~As I draw in a sharp breath and raise my sword,

I can visualize my adversary,

Standing tall and proud as he waits for my strike

Just as a whispering wind blows by,

seeming to question my might.







~But his face fades away into the dark speckled sky,

And he is no longer there, ready to spar with me.

True, that he is only within my mind

But I know he is not a figment of my imagination

I long to meet him someday, and perhaps win our fight.







~So for now, all I can do is wait for that fateful day when he arrives

The smirk on his face will be as sly as ever

And I will test his skill, and compare it to that of a kings, which is mine

As the days go by I will patiently wait, for that one special,

Moonlight night.....
