A warrior shaped by the jagged edge of time
\nWeathered by so many seasons of surviving
\nFighting battle after battle only to find
\nHe has survived today still breathing<\/p>\n
Cold winter months capture his breath at its realease
\nExhaling as he climbs the mountain side
\nHis mountain, for here is his home among the trees
\nArms of rock and hands of steel with steps of pride<\/p>\n
He moves effortlessly through the forest
\nWith every stride hurrying him onward
\nLegs of endurance put to the test
\nPassing by with the feet of a leapord<\/p>\n
The snow is whiter that any could imagine
\nAn image of a man is seen in the distance
\nHe moves with the stripes of a tiger
\nHis will as the heart of a bear<\/p>\n
With the pride of a lion
\nHe moves as the shadow of a panther
\nWith the strength of many men
\nHe closes in to tend to matters<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
