Author's note: This is definitely not the best piece of poetry I've ever written, but it is the only fanfic poem I have ever written so I thought I would post it up here and see what you all thought. I know, it's slightly unrealistic that the dark lord was taken done by a girl with a rock but hey, David and Goliath!!! And he was only knocked unconscious, as people tend to when they get hit with heavy rocks. And…it rhymes! Yay! It is Ginny who throws it by the way, just in case no one picked up the whole 'flash of red' clue because re-reading it it sounds like a spell or something. And when I say 'banned from OOTP' basically I mean that Ginny was too young to join and they had to spy on the meetings with extendable ears…I think that clears everything up….maybe.

Well, I hope you like it! I'm not that keen myself but….I'm rarely happy with something I write myself.

Enjoy!

The Final Victory

Fear pounding in his veins

He wonders if it's worth the gains.

Screams echoing from his lips

He runs and runs, but then he slips

The figure towered high above him

The future looked dark and grim.

--

He stares up at the evil red eyes

His heart drops, his hope dies

This was the end, this was it

He was going to join the pit

Of victims of the evil dark lord

But out of the hat, came a sword

--

He raised it, ready to strike

The lord laughed, eager to fight

To prove he was truly the best;

With Harry Potter, he began to jest.

The boy was losing, he was going to win

Now nothing could stop his path of sin.

--

But suddenly there was a flash of red

And something heavy hit his head

Down and down the powerful man fell

His new home would be an Azkaban cell

Harry stared up at his saviour in shock

A red-haired beauty, holding a rock

--

She couldn't believe she had really done it

Taken down the dark lord with a single hit

Sure, he was just unconscious, he'd be back

But she had halted him with just one whack

He'd been taken by surprise, just as she planned

People underestimated the girl OOTP had banned

--

Harry took her into his arms, holding her tight

They stayed hugging each other all night

The lord stayed lying on the floor

Having forgotten once again, the major flaw

In the plan he always tried and failed to carry out

Harry had too many friends, all with no doubts

About the love and protection they were willing to give

To ensure Harry would continue to defeat him and live

--

The next time the lord awoke, would be to have the kiss

Never again would he hear Nagini's threatening hiss

Finally the Wizarding world would be safe and free

The defeat of the dark lord would make everyone see

That whatever happens light wins over dark

Enough of evil, forget the death eater's mark

--

Let the children laugh, make friends and play

Let the adults smile and go their own way

Let Hogwarts' houses reunite and truce

Let chains fall off and ropes come loose.

And let the wedding bells ring

And family and friends sing

As Harry becomes Ginny's king
