Faith

By THLaird Colyne Stewart, February AS 50 (2015)

The squire asked his knight one day
Upon the virtues true to say
On which of them would lead his way:
The knight, he answered “Faith.”

The squire frowned in dark dismay
Belief in God was not his way
Another choice he tried to sway;
The knight, he answered “Faith.”

“My squire tight attention pay
When e’er you enter into fray
Believe your sword can take the day,
For that I answered Faith.

If dark your demons you would slay,
And if your dues to me you’d pay,
Believe in you is what I say,
For that I answered Faith.”

The squire could not say him nay
And with his blood he went to pay
Belief in self he learned to say
“My knight, he answered Faith.”
