The Fallen

THE FALLEN

Long shadows seen,
caught captive for a moment;
a flag flies free.
Weary
battle-worn bodies
succumb to rest,
leaving behind
the tears and fears
of life.
Monolith lines cover the ground;
sleeping sentinels lie
beyond the world of caring,
keeping watch;
silent story tellers
of battles won and lost.
The shadows lengthen until
only darkness beckons,
and the final muster
begins.

Never rest your pen; don't let your quills dry.

"The Fallen" is the essence to light up the rising of consciousness to wake up justice on earth.

I Salute the Author of "The Fallen".
