-
Under the hills the heart of the axe
Arises from cinders the still core of the fire,
Heated and hammered the handle an afterthought,
For the hills are forging the first breath of war.
The soldier's heart sires and brothers
The battlefield.
Come back in glory
Or on your shield.
Out of the mountains in the midst of the air
The axes are dreaming dreaming of rock,
The metal alive through the ages of ore,
Stone on metal metal on stone.
The soldier's heart contains and dreams
The battlefield.
Come back in glory
Or on your shield.
Red of iron imagined from the vein,
Green of brass green of copper
Sparked in the fire the forge of the world,
Consuming in its dream as it dives into bone.
The soldier's heart lies down, completes
The battlefield.
Come back in glory
Or on your shield.

- *frowns*....*sighs* ur poems are too complicated for me sometimes...... but thats ok, i like it that way. its different from all the other poems. im not saying i understand all of them, just that ur poem knows where it stands, it doesnt ask for a round of applause, just to be noticed and admired. ur poetry has character unlike others. i may be totally wrong about this, but this is the feeling i get when i stand back and just glance over ur poetry...
