Do beware
Oh,
travelers fair
In
the hidden wood
Of
golden hound
Who
seeks your life
A
living sacrifice
He
walks the Paths
So
they say
Searching
for souls astray
If
you see him
Then
your changed
You’ll
never be the same
That’s
what happened
So
I’ve heard
To bard of Rudiobus
The
rascal cat
A
handsome flirt
Who
only loved himself
He
lived to live
For
pleasure alone
And
all were used to help
King
of himself
Death
to all who dared
Dispute
his special royal rule
In
his little liar
He
worked for himself
For
only one
And
only one alone
Then
why’d he stop
For
mortal maid
Who
lay asleep
Entranced
Why’d
he give
What
he was due
To a
woman’s child
Why
else would he
Bring
her with
To
save his lady’s life
And
promise then
To
help her too
The
story I tell is true
Why’d
he guard
With
zealous words
And
acts of jealous passion
Why
did he
Fear
for her
Not
caring for himself
Explain
to me
When
prideful cat
Walked
on Death’s own Path
Took
hold of light
That
lantern left
By
the Brother Knight
And
why would he
When
he was freed
With
his lady love
Leave
his quest
And
lady true
To
his rival pest
To
follow the maid
To
adventure’s end
Willing
to die for her
Why
would he
In
the Place of the Teeth
Kneel
before another
All
he was
He
gave away
A
servant to the King
So
beware
Oh,
travelers fair
In
the hidden wood
The
golden hound
He
seeks your life
A
living sacrifice
If
you see him
You’ll
be changed
And
never be the same

Loved the imagery and lovely story of this poem! Great work, Hannah-Kate!
Great poem! It brought the events of Starflower together with the incredible changes that happen to us when we trust in our God.
Wonderful! I loved how clearly it showed the incredible changes in Eanrin's life, thanks to the everlasting pursuit of the Hound.
