Sense Sonnet - Pumper

El Cid

El Cid, a great warrior of Spain,
Battled against invading Moors,
That kept coming like the rain
Pouring onto the Spanish shores.
An arrow did pierce El Cid's shield.
He died. Despair fell on his men.
Coming onto the battlefield,
His wife, Jimena, kissed him, then
Secured well, El Cid's body on
Babieca, his great war horse.
Leading his army's charge upon
The Moors greater invading force.

El Cid had come back from the dead.
His army rallied. The Moors fled.
