Winds of War

By TwoCrowsLaughing

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Winds of war Befall me now My lover’s gone away To learn the ways Of warfare That he will need today I wait in earnest Patiently Until he does return My heart it beats In double time Fighting on It yearns His eyes of brown They haunt my nights As I lay in bed awake His calls and letters Are enough for now But I long to see his face A warrior true Will beat the risk Thrust upon us by The terrorists And wait I will Holding hands of time Till I once again Can call you mine Winds of War Blow fast and true We will remember you..... ©2001 Crow Majik all rights reservedThis was originally written for my daughter who was dating a marine in boot camp. Given the events of Sept. 11, and the following war, I revised it for the warriors who are now over there fighting. Written October 1st, 2001 © on Oct 01 2001 02:46 AM PST   0 • 12
