She inhales sharply before taking her first steps,
Planting her feet squarely in this new World
Entering from the infinite void into chaos pandemic
And before another breath is drawn, Order is wrought.

Her sword bites into the vital points of a dozen men;
Like so many cobras lashing out, striking their prey.
Her magic bears burden of both shield and healer,
Warding away the viciousness of the cowardly brutes,
Who so blithely thought to attack the innocent.

In seconds, her deadly dance reduces the raiders to nothing
And just as swiftly as she arrived, she sets herself upon
Yet another battle, another world, another affront to justice
She walks among the wyrds of the many worlds, finely weaving
The threads of fate into a glorious tapestry, spun of life,
Love and truth; correcting errors as they manifest in the fabric.

As she strides through this great hall of destinies unfurling,
She hears a whisper in the distance, the faintest notes of song.
A visceral calling spurs her onward, as she guides the cosmos
Towards the Eternal Singing, an aria for a universe awakening
To the wonders of peace, compassion, and unwavering oneness with all.
As she draws ever closer, the voice grows in power and fullness,
Until the song reverberates throughout the whole of Creation.
A moderately toned down interpretation of a birthday-poem request from my best friend, MissSoarrow, whom I love very dearly, but whose poem ideas are a wee bit on the extreme/bordering-on-ridiculous side. ;) Ok, I may have lied about the toned-down part. But I did at least lend an air of whimsy and nobility to an idea that was essentially "describe my bloody conquests on the field of battle". =P

I would be lying if I said this isn't slightly influenced by the Magic: the Gathering book I just finished reading.
