Rose
Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)
The centurions presence was instantly felt.
Hands on his sword he bowed his head.
He joined the ranks never shying away.
The power he left all could never shed.
He'd come to acknowledge in recompense, what was to come through eternal glance.
His love his crown, his heart his immortal robe.
Thus all awaited what would be his stance.
