2 Cib
Yellow Lunar
Warrior
From Rome to
Byzantium
The poets sing
Glories of King
Arthur –
All Celtic poet
Kings
Beowulf of Denmark
Warriors of Persia
Greece, Egypt, India,
and Ur –
Gilgamesh – the One
Who built Babylon
These Epics –
The first
Poetry – singing
The praises of
Warrior Kings
Heroes of Battle and
Great Deeds
Who through these singers
Became Legend, Myth,
and Lore
Thus do we mark Mnemosyne
Cultural Memory and Mother of Muses –
Keeping for people
their
History and Identity
In Verses of Poetry sublime –
Recited for days
And Known by Heart.
