Home!

"...the warrior who traveled so far..."

Home!

Home!
Home is the warrior who traveled so far.
Home from their final mission.
Trumpets blare a sad final tune.
And all of us start missing.
No longer at table where the living are laughing.
At their eternal rest in the glorious fields of Elysium.
Home is the warrior who traveled so far
And accorded her lofty position.
