Soldiers marching off to war
a battle of the heart.
A great show of manly power
tears this life apart.
One by one, each takes up arms
to move upon the field.
They use each weapon expertly
to cause a girl to yield.
Military might has come
to settle up the score
all thats left is smoke and dust
a jaded girl at war.
Each person is but a grain of sand resting beside the sea. This thought sets the tone for Jill Eisnaugle’s latest poetry collection, Beside Still Waters.
If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
