Little Soldier

This is a poem about Max`s funeral. It jut popped into my head this morning. All characters belong to Cassandra Clare. Enjoy!

Wisps of smoke circle higher and higher

to touch the heavens above

All that remains of the little soldier

is the scent of his body burning

Voices cry out

filled with grief, sorrow and longing

for the little lost boy

We are but dust and shadows

Ave atque vale,

Max Lightwood
