on the battlefield of mans destruction,
to raise It's crimson head
bringing beauty where none was before.
Cloaked in the thorns of futility
yet unbowed before the storm,
such blood red glory stands
where before, all had fallen.
For all his craft in arts of war
man will never match it,
for this rose of true compassion
will live for evermore. [comments] => 4 [counter] => 164 [topic] => 19 [informant] => backstreetdreamer [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 14 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => InspirationalPoems )

Red is the unconquered rose
on the battlefield of mans destruction,
to raise It's crimson head
bringing beauty where none was before.
Cloaked in the thorns of futility
yet unbowed before the storm,
such blood red glory stands
where before, all had fallen.
For all his craft in arts of war
man will never match it,
for this rose of true compassion
will live for evermore.

Makes me think of the ancient spartans geeting ready for war
You've got great imagery.

This is extremely strong and powerful. I am impressed with the compassion felt from this poem.
