Destiny Awaits
                                               By: Lawrence W Langman (C)

                                                  I hear the voices
                                                  above on high.
                                                  From the Halls of
                                                  heroes sanctified.

                                                  Glory bestowed
                                                  upon one's brow.
                                                  Ox and blisters
                                                  mastered plough.

                                                  He ached for battle
                                                  his ax's blood thirst.
                                                  Oars meet the tides
                                                  ready to traverse.

                                                  To raid and pillage
                                                  is their way of life.
                                                  Against all the odds
                                                  battle through strife.

                                                  A way handed down
                                                  by ancestor's told.
                                                  Guided by the fire
                                                  of those who grew old.

                                                  Loving their wives their
                                                  children and clan.
                                                  Tilling the earth for
                                                  their faith demands.

                                                  So echo their voices
                                                  on winds they do sail.
                                                  These warrior Vikings
                                                  shall always prevail!

                                                  Those stories will resonate
                                                  throughout skies.
                                                  When Valkyrie arrives and
                                                  Valhalla greets my demise.
