Conquest

Dawn’s herald sounds forth, Night’s ramparts are stormed, Her daunting walls breached. Westward she withdraws, Her keep abandoned, The conquest complete. Day’s standard flies high, Proclaiming rebirth, Warming the chill land. Written 13/04/2015 ~Shane Cooper~

Stunning image which drew me in to the deep dark imagery in the poem Shane - I found the first two stanzas quite haunting - loved contrast in the final stanza :-) Hugs jan xx

Glad to see you're writing again, Shane. Reminders of an era gone by, but with deeper meaning within. Hugs...
