Hero's Awakening

• Artist: METRO SKiiES
• Description: I began this poem with the Warriors series in mind, imagining the brief calm in Rising Storm when everyone thought that the evil one was gone. As I came to the end of the poem, the heroic Link from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess came to mind, and I began writing about his deeds.
  I hope those who read this will have an open mind about my format. Freestyle poetry is quickly becoming the rule, not the exception. I hope that you can respect my rhyme scheme as I respect your jumbled lines.

Hero's Awakening

Peace reigns
From the mountains, frigid white
To the seashore, warm and wet
Now it seems that all is right
But something's bound to happen yet

Evil sleeps
Never truly gone, it waits
Waiting for a chance to strike
Ready to spread fear and hate
Until a hero comes to rise

Hero wakes
Knowing that the task ahead
Is formidable, once more
He must defeat what evil led
To save his home from shadow's lore

Good poem! Really does remind me of Link.
