Soldiering war

drained memories of blood
sky soaked crimson reflection
exploding stars seep into earth

soldiers of ironed transformation
entrench letters of indelible fear
core hearts of peace enciphered

worlds of bursting emotion
expressions of ripening conditions
hopeless anger of love encroached

tombs of white splattered red
futility desires of expanding deceit
sustains journey of disruption

peace of yearning arrival
love of transgressing hate fulfilled
man and earth's embattled journey

Author notes

In the name of peace.

    I read your work ...

    and I see the deep knowing that no matter what destruction awaits us in this world, the True Victory is in the spiritual realm. Man is made of stardust; and from dust to dust to STAR we will be resurrected. The so-called peace of this world is a-passing. Soon it will be night. But, sayeth the Lord, only a short while there will be agony -- and then it will be over.

    I see stop words like blood, fear, anger, deceit, hate, disruption ... but then rejuvenating, victorious words like divine peace and Love written over it, neutralizing agony and decay, leading to growth anew.

    May the peace of the Peacemaker be with you, Frans, now and forever.

    Love
    Myra

        When I look at "our" picture ...

        I see you there, the Man in Blue, the Healer ... Leader, not separated, but part of the group. In every way.
