Thorns and Feathers

Everywhere it is heard

That they will give a kind word

To anyone in need

Even though Rosethorn may,

Seem like a hard seed

She is like a solid tree at the end of the day.


Spinning everyone together

As a piece on her loom

An adopted mother

Everyone is comfortable in the room.

She is Lark, is she

The feathers that cloak the thorns

Always a nice place to be.


They are the guardians of Discipline.

Who raised the four,

Now the world they tour,

Still they wait—

With open arms

They leave an open gate,

Protection from harms

Lark and Rosethorn,

A great deal more soft than stern,

Are always waiting

For the footsteps of return.
