Ninjitsu, darkness that sees the light*

Ninjitsu, darkness that sees the light*

Farm land on the mountain, paddies with rice
Leveled out wetlands, landscaped so nice
Production is good, grains by the score
Bales and bushels abundant, all to feed more
Green shoots a plenty so much cultivation
But something is out there giving observation

A community that thrives in putting itself together
Through the heat of the climate or heavy rains in the weather
Such harmony exists in being peaceful and calm
A civilized society working late at night and up at dawn
An element has sparked outside this space
Some deceit from one's eyes is about to take place

But these farmers are well seasoned and of such great health
They are about to learn Bushido and become of stealth
There is a great Spirit that directs them on how to react
Awareness is the Spirit and has its Truth with its facts
So each farmer is placed to become honed to sharpen their skill
For another group is settling around them only one thought to kill

Mastery is within themselves for they will learn on the fly
Shadowing of their enemy, and their illusions to make them die
For the weapons they have chosen they are simple farming tools
They will Now become a band of brothers, a special forces school
For the Spirit Now places them dotted across the land
Each one becomes a shadow where a tree stands

The enemy has entered but sees nothing in their eyes
But it was behind them they do not see, for it is a big surprise
So silent these warriors are from darkness they emerge
The enemy never knew what hit them, when stealth did converge
Bushido was Ninjitsu with its cleverness sharp edged swords
Awaited for the right moment for darkened shadows to come towards

Yes you may never know whose territory you have chose
Never make any assumptions, surprises are many that will show
The enemy should have stayed off that mountain and allowed those farmers to be free
From that night of chaos that came and left, for now stillness is here so peacefully
From a deep group of men that had the Divine Spirit that night
A darkened society of stealth weaponry, that also sees the light
