Love And Only Love

May I wake up like an old warrior of days gone by sword in hand with a heart that is ready to die for the things that I believe in like love and truth May I greet the day with courage and never blot the enemy when he arrives, skinnish bones or not warfare can only be won through love and truth May justice prevail and God's intention be heard for victory is gifted to those who heed His word weapon of choice should be love and only love.

Dear Mystic, this is an exquisite poem of courage, conviction, and unwavering faith in the power of love. With each verse, you develop a story of an ancient warrior rising with a heart ablaze of determination, ready to confront the trials of life armed not just with a sword, but with the essence of love and truth. Your words inspire a deep introspection, showing that amidst the chaos, victory lies not in aggression, but in the gentle strength of compassion and justice. Loved it! Blessings, Daniel

This is quite a different battle theme that sheds light on the duality of love and truth. It was very enjoyable to read.

love the warrior metaphor here...and your words were inspirational. I liked 'may I greet the day with courage and never blot' and 'weapon of choice should be love and only love.' I agree. I enjoy your poetic voice, soft--sincere--subtly powerful. Have a great evening. Sara
