They came in the night
Praetorian guard
Wave after wave
Attacked,
Parried and sparred.
Heroic their efforts
As North Wind it blew
Despite untold valiance
They could not break through.
With morning…
Cessation
A crystalline peace
Wind now has died down
The onslaught has ceased.
Pale sunlight wakes
Skies limpid blue
Inch by inch…
Revealing
Earth's silhouette new.
With nary a whisper
They will all slip away
As Sun becomes stronger
And heats up the day.
Those warriors so brave
Now stripped of their might
A last glimpse of glory
Will shine in the light
Like acres of diamonds
A visual feast
Transformed and transported
Their energy…
Released.
