Writer Highlight Featuring: Kiki Stamatiou
He raises his trumpet in song to honor those heroes who have fallen in battle, defending their homeland. The voices echo on in the music he plays, as his heart bestows glory and honor to the earth. Serenity is mixed with a calmness; yet, at the same time, it is festered with a calamity of the soul that is not at peace. For after the battles of war have ended, there is an inner conflict boiling consisting of the in fracture of the spirit, soul, emotional state, and the mind that have become broken down by grievances that cannot be easily consoled.
The boy gives the dead a send off as they are slowly transported up into the arms of heaven. His heart is unsoiled, and his passion is a light that provides for a life line to those who saunter down the road to isolation from all the upheavals in a realm they can no longer exist. For this is a manifestation of the soul that moves along fields blackened with the ashes of the dead. But by the hours that exceed him, the music plays on throughout all hours of the night as the heart of the boy trumpet player weeps.
