ANEW : hero saves child

Sent: 5/31/2005 8:31 PM


it had ended with
the child lifted
into his father's breast
and there he sank into him
finally knowing a little rest
his blood stained cheeks and arms
tearful eyes ringing with death
exhausted limp upturned palms
his peaceful smile at its best
was all he could offer
his only hero
