Knights Templar Poem

  • In days of old,
    When knights in shinning armor
    Were callous
    And bold…

    Many wild tales
    Were told
    Of
    The Knights Templar.

    Secret ceremonies held,
    Secret oaths taken,
    A pledge to serve God,
    Never to be foresaken.

    Money-lenders,
    Money-keepers,
    Keeping secret
    Their secret ways.

    Swearing to serve God,
    And the Pope,
    Taking their loyalty
    To the grave.

    In Jeruselum
    They fought,
    Bringing Order
    To the crusades.

    Fighting fiercely,
    They fought like lions,
    Fought bravely,
    As no other
    Has.

    Face to face combat
    On an open field,
    Many lives taken,
    Many were killed.

    Man against man,
    A clash of steel,
    Sword in hand.

    Broken souls,
    Battered bodies,
    Wounds that will
    Never heal…

    Centuries have passed
    Since the Templars
    Were disbanded.

    Brought down hard,
    Not by sword,
    Not by chance.

    Brought down hard
    By the Pope,
    And the king of France.
