retirement poem

where shall i find you
beneath the warrior's helm
long has the summer sunlight shone
in their ragged regimentals
i am dying
for truth, for love
a thousand silent years ago
look out upon the stars, my love
by the shore, by the sea
the darkness steals the forms of all the queens
above them all, looking down
i love to steal awhile away
some one complained to the master
