A knight
Who was going to the war
To hold up the flag
Of all the free
We last saw each other
the first day of this year
None of us said goodbye
We talked, we disagreed
Which he loved
His experiences and integrity
always on display
About to leave
To ride the sea
In disbelief to find myself
having the last word
A knight
Who went to the war
Held up the flag
Of all the free
Requiescat in pace
