Catching Peace

tinker, toil
better soil

dynasty, tribe
subject abide

former titled
passion briddled 

fallen soldier
memories endure

sailor, thief
escaping grief

arena dark
living spark

searching skies
forlorn eyes

easing pain
is he sane

longing fire
rebirth dire

sizzlin’ sun
smoking gun

trimming fat
becoming flat

firing shot
world forgot

being strange
longer range

almost there
on the air

catching peace
slow release

emerge complete
hometown street

banishing foes
a tree still grows

waxing mature
battles endured

coming home
never alone

smiling bright
her delight
