Covered.

Goldfinch60



He came through the gate

His throat was exposed

But his voice was steady

His demeaner composed

 

I stood there before him

Light in my hand

To show him the glory

That glory was his

He just needed to see

To find his new life

A life that would be

Full of bright light

 

The gate was now closed

His throat now covered

Into his future

He walked with such pride

The wolf was behind him

No need to now hide

Becoming the man

He should always have seen

His future secure

As it always had been

 

He came through the gate

His throat not exposed

His voice was so steady

His demeaner composed.

        Thanks Gold, though I don't know what to say much, in response to this genre of poems. My standard phrases of 'good write' or 'fine write' usually.
