this is a series based on the scene when the Pevensies meet Trumpkin in PC movie.
enjoy!



"Trumpkin" (part 1)



~Soldier 1~

We're taking the dwarf out on the lake
I am now beginning to shake
The forest surrounds us on all sides
And there is nowhere we can hide

~Soldier 2~

We lift the dwarf, gagged and bound
But suddenly we hear a sound
"Drop him!" someone yells from the shore
Where no one had been before

~Susan~

The men drop the dwarf over the side
His hands and feet are tightly tied
I shoot and arrow from my bow
Into the water the soldiers go

~Peter~

I run, feeling my heart pound
If I don't hurry the dwarf will drown
Diving down, I grab his hand
And pull him back onto dry land

this is a poem based on the part in PC movie when Lucy sees Aslan in the woods.
enjoy!



"Joy"



Through the trees in the sunlight
My eyes take in a wonderous sight
A Lion stands before my eyes
Slowly to my feet I rise

Aslan looks into my face
And I run into His embrace
His presence takes away my fear
All else fades when he is near

here's a fun poem. I have lately been obsessed with the 25th anniversary version of "Les Miserables: The Musical" and I had the "Work Song" stuck in my head. so I wrote this poem to the same ryhme sequence as that song. when you read this, sing it to the tune of the "Work Song" which you can hear here if you don't know it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syxzlKcQDyo



"For Narnia And The North"



My life is poor
I'm always mending nets
From dawn's first light
Until the sun has set

I long to see
What's there beyond that hill
But there's no hope
That I ever will

But look who comes
A man with a dark face
His clothing shows
He's a Tarkhaan by race

We're forced to give
Him shelter for the night
And my future
Doesn't seem so bright

I sit beside the door
And listen in
Arsheesh explains
That I am not his kin

I am shocked
But quite relieved as well
For years, this fact
I could often tell

I go into
The donkey's stall and sigh
I'd never loved Arsheesh
No matter how I tried

I say out loud
I wish the horse could talk
And when it does
It gives me quite a shock

The horse tells me
I'd rather die tonight
Than be his master's slave
In the morning light

He then explains
That we must now away
For Narnia and the North
That will be our way

"Courage"



As the darkness closes in
And we think we'll never win
I cry out to the One who hears
And I feel hope shine through my fear

Through the mist I see a light
Breaking through the endless night
Then I feel a peace impart
When Aslan says, "Courage, dear heart."

this is a poem based on the part in LWW movie when Lucy and Susan ride on Aslan's back.
enjoy!



"A Morning Ride"



The trees surround us on all sides
The mountains are whipping past
Upon our upturned faces
The morning sun is cast

Aslan's feet pound on the ground
The wind flies through our hair
To our surprise we come upon
The Witch's icy lair

"Forgiven"

I remember when I first saw His face
And the way that He imparted grace
To a lost and selfish wretch like me
When Aslan died He set me free

I liked it a lot, it was sweet and special, good work :)
"To a lost and selfish wretch like me"--I especially liked this line, I like the way the words go together :)
