"What Will It Take....."

What will it take, the Muses say,

Then too the storms call out,

What toll are we each prepared to give.

What will be asked of us, the shadows state,

What will it take, the echoes call as well,

For each to choose, then each to strive, with all they have,

On paths of efforts, and such trails of time...

Now let us commit, responds the ageless voices,

For then it seems, all the more surely, we will each discover,

Whatever it takes, to be on our way...
