"Warrior's Rest (Warrior Trilogy Pt. 3)"
  by the struggle
  - This Poem is a response to the poem Warrior's Resolve (Warrior Trilogy Pt. 2) by the struggle


6/19/08

laying down in water
raging memories put to rest

pain fades
leaving solitude,
blessed serenity and bliss

waves wash
make clean and right

losing myself...
slowly
purified.

becoming one...
one with the tide.

no distinguishing
between it and i

redemption sings
and her voice,
i like

"...help to sing..."

a song so
sweet and light

more complex than i thought
yet so simple inside

struggle finally over
harmony presides.

legacy bequeathed
now redeemed and right

that once crimson
now pure and white

fading away
no goodbye

finally...

in death
peace i find.

-DL Martin

Oh my...such a bittersweet peace. Sadly wishing this traveler well and hoping for open roads that have no paths which detour away from the peace found. Your trilogy is remarkable. The musical accompaniement on this speaks of a serenity finally found with an underlying tone of sadness. Very well done poet. This was a most masterful series. Bravo.

What a way to end it with the same intense emotional feeling. These were very pleasing and great to read. Ten stars for all three. "Pain fades, leaving solitude, blessed serenity and bliss" that line had so much depth behind it. Keep up these great writes
