Swordfish
Team Name
The Unlikely King
The water sits still waiting
The trees keep quiet watching
The land stays soft praying
The earth holds its breath
Scared for something worse than death
The sky holds its rain
Scared for something worse than pain
The stars hold their light
Scared for something worse than night
All the universe waiting in anticipation
And suddenly
The King drew from the ocean
Over the sea, over the crowds
Over the trees, over the clouds
A giant flying beast
Powerful beautiful wings
The noble kingfisher
Looking for a feast.
