Missing Saints
By Iwas
I dreamt of clouds and rainy days.
Of fogs and bogs and and misty
haze.
The piercing rays of glory fades.
As people die and wash
away.
The river flows, it never slows.
All you hear is
squawking crows.
In his memory the key is stowed.
He will never
let us know.
Hes seen the dead wash away.
The pain is gone
it could not stay.
But beneath the ground the warriors still lay.
Never heard but still they pray.
Greatness has since come
and gone.
Their armies forever marching on.
Holding flags and
singing songs.
For rememberance they solely long.

I think the rhyming made this poem what it was and that is powerful on many levels. Thanks for sharing.

I don't always like rhymed and metered poetry, mainly because its so hard to make it truly beautiful. This was a great piece. The title was perfect and the images were crisp and vivid but in a hauntingly dreamlike melody. Beautiful write! I need to read the rest of your works!
