Patriots Gather

Patriots versus British - fighting for freedom....

Patriots Gather

 

Whispering to each other, three Patriots appear

 

Crossing the rocky stream; vents of steam puffing from

 

The ground. A beaver dam and sycamore trees

 

Cloaked in darkness, foggy apparrtions.

 

Arrive at camp, everyone bustles about…

 

“British looking for our friends. We need to move out,

 

Roll the barrels to the wagons,” horses neigh.

 

Patriots gather, stars, pinpoints of light guide their way.

 

“We march for freedom,” in the days to come

They win the battle and the fighting is done
