Thanks for you kind comments.

Jade_Pilot: Thanks, Jade. I wanted to Obi-wan to say something that would break Anakin completely, but in love.

DarthIshtar: Thanks for reading, Ish. Yes, Anakin's redemption capped by Obi-Wan's forgiveness.

Big E: Thanks, Big E. I'm glad it touched you.

Absolutely breathtaking! applause

Laying against the bulkhead,
He let out his final breath,
A moment with his son,
Then onward into death.

Suddenly free of armor
And all its needed aid,
He marveled at the freedom
And was no longer afraid.


cry applause

As the two walked arm in arm
And faded to the light,
Another man stood at peace
Knowing he was right.


That was beautiful Brodie. Ive read so many fics that deal with OBi-Wan's and Anakin's reunion in the afterlife but I do believe this one says it all, just enough leaving all the unsaid things where they should be, in their eyes.
I loved the finish with Luke watching. Again applause

Wow... that was beautiful happy I don't think you could have adequately expressed yourself in other forms as you did in this poem- it was perfect.

After reading your note at the beginning, I found the Father/Son imagery appealing- and soothing. Powerful images came to mind as I read this. It was very inspirational.

This stanza was my favorite:

“It is good to see you, Young One
Your heart has long been hidden,
But in this place of mercy,
Your sins are all forgiven.”


Beautiful job!

As his father drew ever closer,
His will gave way for good,
His brother stopped in front of him,
And drew back his hood.


I loved this because I can never decide if Obi-Wan's more of a father than a brother to Anakin, and you fixed it by giving both aspects equal time. tongue

I also really liked the image of forgiveness you mentioned at the beginning of the post - I hope you find someone to draw it, because that would be something to see!

That was incredibly beautiful, and such a great way to write the reunion between Anakin and Obi-Wan. I loved the forgiveness theme.

applause love

I really liked the lines depicting Obi-Wan, the father figure, and followed by Obi-Wan, his brother. That was so reminiscent of their relationship in life.

Best of all, now they have eternity to be brothers/friends again. grin
