A/N - Hello everyone! I'm sorry I haven't posted anything in a while. I've been busy finishing undergrad. This is the first of five sonnets I wrote for my my sonnet sequence in my creative writing poetry class. I hope you enjoy!
Disclaimer - I don't own Narnia.
"War and Peace"
He fought in battle, later crown'd a king,
he was yet a boy when he took command.
Peter train'd in swordplay every morning
to be the greatest swordsman in all the land.
A king and warrior for years on end:
ruling alongside his siblings happily.
Suddenly shov'd out of his most reverend
home, king became boy again abruptly.
Sliced be the king's soul as man wars child.
Haunted is the one that stares in his eyes –
Ancient they look; they've witnessed all things wild.
There are times Peter's eyes appear too wise.
The man-minded child finally finds peace.
Through imitating Job, he finds release.
