Amidst the dust and crumbled home,
an orphaned baby lay.
His parents lost and fam’ly torn,
did happen on this day.

Young wizard child, so brave and true;
He shed no single tear.
With courage, hope, this boy had proved
such strength beyond his year.

Resulted strife from tragic past,
made worse by hateful kin.
The Potters’ truth kept in the dark,
to quell magic in him.

And yet they failed, those Dursleys three,
to keep Harry repressed.
Some strange events of magic sort
Did often get the best.

Those letters torn and punishments
were no effective snare;
for Dumbledore had found him here,
just underneath the stairs.

At school it seemed his luck had changed;
with friends his life was better.
Away from hate, near those who cared,
Freed him from his fetter.

But outside Hogwarts turmoil raged
and inside under cover.
The secret plan by Voldemort:
a stone to discover.

Some years had passed since terror struck,
but now it comes once more.
In Harry’s first year at Hogwarts
begins another war.

A prophecy told of a boy,
the only one to live.
He must defeat Lord Voldemort;
Perhaps his life must give.

His truest friends and confidants
will help him on his way,
to lend support, some magic skills,
and fight in the melee.

From Stone of life to Chamber dark,
to Horcruxes to find,
these missions will require all
that they can give combined.

Though dangerous with odds so slim,
They must get this job done.
Defeat the Dark Lord, that’s their goal,
And then this war be won.

When finally this terror’s through
And when the vi’lence cease,
Avenge the deaths and right the wrongs,
The world may live in peace.
