What has become of our warrior-poet?
It's been a while since last heard from.
Know only he was valiantly marching
Toward the final checkpoint
Prior returning to base.
As General MacArthur said;
"Old soldiers never die, they just fade away."
The same must surely hold true of old bards
With a legacy of fine poetry to live on.

I do not know. He is a tough one. I think of him always. Thanks for posting this 🙂
He does on occasion miss a few days but I do hope he is ok.
Hoping everyone will hear something soon. Holding him in my thoughts.
Don't know. And yes, you could replace the word 'soldier' with the word 'bard'.
Augustus and his verses have been much missed and do hope this fine poem and loving comments will be able to help him to battle on.
Great poem. Augustus is a great man and a fine poet. Hope we hear something soon!
