He was met at the gate of Hades By the Guardian of the Lost Souls, The Keeper of the Unavenged And He did say to him: "Let ye not pass Abaddon Return to the world From whence you came And seek payment Not only for thy known anguish But to vindicate the souls Of the Unavenged" And they placed in his hands A sword Made for him Called: Vengeance Forged in brimstone And tempered By the woeful tears of the Unavenged And to carry him up on his journey Back to the upper world They brought forth Their Demon horse Called: Black Death A grim steed So fiercely might And black in colour That he could stand as one: Darkness... Save from his burning eyes of crimson fire And on that night They rode up from Hell The pounding of his hooves Did clap like thunder !
I am so sorry I've been so lax in keeping in touch. Like everyone else, I'm sure, I've been so busy with the Holidays. I, for some reason, believe I'm much younger than I really am!! I'm not.. ;)
Wishing you a very, very Happy, (and prosperous) New Year!!!
