Okay, I felt I needed to write this to make up for my last poem which didn't have enough Halo in it. I hope I did the ODST's credit here, I really enjoy learning more about them.(Helljumper, hint, hint.)So hope ya enjoy it.
Ones eyes close tight, and families fade,
When going to war which the covenant made.
Though anxious and frightened, we don't let it show,
For the day is approaching, when the ODST's must go.
Each day now rolls past; we wait just the same,
But the time is near, and for this we all came.
The hour grows near; each man feels it inside,
And soon we'll be falling with nowhere to hide.
Our eyes are now down and the chatter the same,
Each weapon now loaded, no longer a game.
Helljumpers gather round and bow your heads low,
Earh awaits and the hour is go.
Ships fly past as we wait for our turn,
To fly over territory we have yet each to earn.
HEV's checked, we now stand firm and steady,
The Lt. calls over the comm. "Are you ready?".
"Sir yes sir!" we yell as we launch toward the planet to late to turn.
We now enter space at maximum burn.
Plasma and fire in the blackest of space,
We now enter the atmosphere, it's danger we face.
There's no turning back, the risk has been taken,
Feet first into hell, ODST's forsaken.
Helljumpers hold tight, scattered prayers to survive,
We'll hit the surface soon, whether dead or alive.
As pods touch down, each trooper turns on,
Confusion and fear are beaten and gone.
The Covenant are close and sad they know,
The ODST's are here, it's time they must go.
The hour is now, there's nowhere to hide,
On St. Michael's wings, we're saving mankind.
Hope you guys liked it. Please post comments.
