Eagles Domain - Dave Stiles

The eagles flew together

controlling land and air

aloft in all kinds of weather

flying without a care

 

They were true lovers

flying over mountain, plain and tree

Never fearing any others

their bond for all to see

 

With wings straight and true

Flying across this land

With speed and power they flew

their kingdom they did command

 

Gliding with ease and grace

soaring over this vast terrain

This was their land, their place

this land was their domain

 

But out of the sky came conflict

from the black devil's of the sky

To fight, the choice, that they had picked

to dominate the sky they would try

 

Five ravens came in fighting

from out of the sun, flying high

Raven and eagle competing

for dominance of the sky

 

The eagles rose up without fear

each Raven drove home their attack

Their intent, to the eagles, was clear

this land, once theirs, to win back

 

Hovering, twisting, turning

they rode out the first attack

Each eagle led with talons flashing

the Ravens were the first to crack

 

The Ravens were soon defeated,

both eagles dispatched them all

the vanquished, had retreated

Far from this land they did fall

 

Both eagles flew in tandem

their power for all to see

From afar the ravens watched them

in awe of their majesty

 

Their bond they would not sever

As one they would always remain

Two lovers entwined forever

This was still their domain
