Across a Field of Lilacs Spread

Across A Field of Lilacs Spread Across a field of lilacs spread The warriors in their flight Ten thousand fought and died here Eight hundred fled to the night Blood and lilacs merged into Cacophony of sight and smell Death and beauty lay as one Upon a battlefield of hell Flowers bent o’er each body As tho they wept in sorrow Sightless eyes stared back at them One last look beyond tomorrow A field of lilacs wept that day Young men fought and died Purple for their patriot passion And red for their patriot pride Written December 15th, 2001 © on Dec 15 2001 04:22 AM PST   10 • 0
