I wrote this a few years ago, but now dedicate it to you. Keep the faith xxx
The path of the warrior
The quietness of the night surrounds her
as she walks the path of blackness
on the voyage of the internal landscape.
The blue hawk sweeps past
and the forest sings in tune with each step.
She is alone and yet not.
Her path is that of the jade dragon,
her heart a cool stone of remembering.
Each mountain is a goal to her,
each valley a reminder of where she has been.
Fear not faint hearted
life is but a shadow
that follows you until your last day
upon this craggy hill.
Your soul is silent in the night,
but upon the birth of a new day
it shall, like the sun
shine very brightly.
and give warmth to the dawn.
