FORTRESS

The fort is vital for offense
Who fear the foes has its defense

A crystal fount, a space a mount
Thick woods form a fort paramount.

An ideal fort's so says science:
High, broad,strong and hard for access.

Ample in space, easy to hold
The fort foils enemies bold.

Impregnable with stores of food
Cosy to live-That fort is good.

A fort is full of stores and arms
And brave heroes to meet alarms.

Besieging foes a fort withstands
Darts and mines of treacherous hands.

A fort holds itself and defies
The attacks of encircling foes.

A fort it is that fells the foes
And gains by deeds a name glorious.

But a fort however grand
Is nil if heroes do not stand.
