Open your heart for all to see,
the goodness your golden fair Odyssey

Shine bright upon this world you love
you travel to a land without fear a flight a dove.

They’ll see you coming for miles around,
this dove within  a hawks town.

Traveling upon your virtuous steed,
to fulfill your warriors deed.

You set your sights far and wide,
isolated those loves close -- you hide.

So go forth and win this battle of yours,
we sit at home light a candle and let the waters pour.

Strike forth your sword of light and shine,
but let it be known your mine.

Heart and spirit you’ve given to me,
our loves greater, grander than all the sea

Ulysses traveled some-what like this for20 years,
Triton couldn’t detour his quest to reclaim his beloved,
even his dog died with happy tears.

We’ll wait upon your return warrior of mine,
we’ll wait for the passing and the end of time.

Give it your best and charge among the horde,
and think of me least a chance in life even when bored.

Hoping it’s worth this battle of yours,
each breath each moment your life essence soars.

Lighting a candle for your safe return,
like so many centuries lovers concern.

this reminded me of "Braveheart" and was romantic, timeless and moving.
Hope to see much, much more

Exquisite poem, Joel.  This one soars all of it's own.
