Fandom that I'm crossing with: Avatar: The Last Airbender

Characters: Splinter and Iroh

A family lost

Suddenly, family gained

but not without loss


sitting peacefully

hiding all their grievances

hiding all their pain


from their new children

Wise old men, with good advice

if their sons listen


peaceful;meditate

but they are warriors still

strong, despite the age


Sorry about the lines, but it's the only was the Fanfiction will let me make stanzas. Anyway, inspiration? Iroh lost Luten and gained Zuko, but had to lose and be banished first, and of course you all probably know the Yoshi/Splinter story. So, there you go. R&R Until next chapter!
