Oh here thy cry
The war has concluded
The opposing team gone in envy

The general glares into my eyes
His mind deluded
Yet his efforts have been plenty.

Oh here thy wind
From a summer night
The general salutes his men

With an absolute grin
He vanished from sight
Never to be seen again

And yet his memory continues
To inhabit all of our minds
His command remains valiant

His funeral was unanticipated
For victory we thought would survive
His effort greatly lent
