"The Fated Flower 

The Final breath

                 Understand,

                  A fate called death

The gentle lion

The loyal horse

                    May have seen,

                     War in different forms

The lonly wolf

The prowling tiger

                       Know of men,

                       And of gun fire

The flying crow

The falling stone

                      A fear of heights,

                      they've never known

The whispering breeze

The countless waves

                         An honored warrior,

                        Once so brave 

The strong go down

The lost unseen

                         So soft,so dark

                         The shadows serene."
