A Eulogy For Fallen Pagan Soldiers
Men and women
from all walks of life
come together, in unity,
to stand and march
before us in battle,
to guard and protect
our freedoms and our homes.
And from these bright lights
of honor and of duty,
our brethren stand on equal ground,
for together they fight,
together they live,
and together they die.
And as they enter the Summerland,
as their comrades enter Heaven,
they are honored for their
vigilance and bravery,
and their willingness
to sacrifice and to defend,
with a mark of their faith
placed upon their tombs.
So that in death, too,
our fallen brethren
stand and walk on equal ground,
even as they turn from
the light of this world,
and depart from the loved ones.
And like knights of old,
may they walk into the light
of eternal and perpetual love
bound within the heart of the Goddess.
Author's Notes: This is just my own personal attempt to commemorate those of our brethren who have gone to war, who have fought and who have died. For today is a glorious day, because they have approved the pentacle to be placed on military soldier's tombstones. Blessed Be!
