Clouds gather amidst the thunders of a rising storm.
Darkened sky veiled with death’s wreath of black crepe,
Shrouding wounds of lost love—we mourn.
O’ exuberance—
emanated from your love
our Aussie Shepherd.
-Resolute Lee
Torn, frayed, and tattered,
Red, white, and blue become one,
Through the revered threads.
-Resolute Lee
Patriot’s linen,
Sewn together-red, white, blue,
Risen in reverence.
-Resolute Lee
Illuminated amid white sands,
Revealed long after revered sorrows,
Unforgotten love is unearthed;
Souls’ presence venerated in the,
Adored relics summoning them o’er ages;
Restful repose amid the dunes,
Where two departed, cross paths eternal,
In the tranquility that alluded them in life.
-Resolute Lee
Hewn timbers under a brokenhearted sky,
listen if you will to venerable spirit’s whisper-
echoing across tearful winds that cry.
Red wood, white cloud, blue Heaven,
amassing broken pieces to stitch spirit’s revered breath-
unfurled amid a sorrowful procession.
Seasons pass giving way to centuries,
adorning hearts in whisper and breath-
hallowed unforgotten patriotic memories.
-Resolute Lee
Through distant fields of tall grasses,
Weary eyed vigilant gaze on horizons,
Lonesome march absent masses,
Towards those sunsets and sunrises,
Flesh adorned with scarred lacerations,
Torn open again-dried blood,
Those old damned wounds of our nation,
Healing slowed like steps in a mud,
March on through that sorrow,
March on to that tomorrow,
-Resolute Lee
Those quiet escapes, when writing
the hours pass; purposefully lost,
amid thoughts, experiences, imagination;
on my return, lost perspective of what
I've created and what I've lived;
have I written myself into existence
or am I simply the words.
—Resolute Lee
Hey there little pup,
interrupted your porch nap?
Oh! I am sorry.
-Resolute Lee
Those yellows and blacks!
Highlighted by the Sun rays
Welcoming us home.

Shield, laurel, arrows-
Prepared in War or in Peace-
in my sinister!
by Resolute Lee
Those hewn timbers transport us to a time long since past,
Our lives forever woven with these heartwoods.
Upon that hearth we swore "I Do" as loved ones amassed,
Our love’s covenant shared beneath cedar wood.
Love will challenge at times, seem unscalable-though needn’t,
Ours to be such an unreachable summit.
Far off journeys begin with those first steps together. Our path will exp
Of Hyperion-
high one, you know sun and moon,
great Titan hidden.
-Resolute Lee
Mirror’s reflections-
secret wooded hideaway,
Transcendental place.
by Resolute Lee
Purposefully lost
Deeply amid woods and thoughts-
Lost to find oneself.
by Resolute Lee
Fall-season or loss
Each has elements of change
Forget not the brave.
-Resolute Lee
Majestic deep blue,
Illuminating Event-
Horizon within.
