    March

    The lion and the lamb,
    a march to a hill,
    a ribbon of roses
    I followed to you,
    the blood and the spear.

    Tired of War

    Looking so gentle,

    wondering at the love your keeper gives,

    knowing it’s a meal

    but preferring the keeper’s tacit words more,

    the companion also knows

    its life is not at stake

    for love has a way

    of hiding pain with a word said

    nothing to pay

    there will come a day

    Master Keeper will say,

    Keeper, well done,

    Gentle king, well done,

    Little tiny one, well done.

    –Annette K. Riddle
