DON'T BREAK THE LINE

Thinking about 'Soldiers', those I've known and that are no longer here. Thinking about 'Soldiers' here, there and everywhere...RIP


Poem Artwork

 

we split a coca cola   

dirt...was in both of our eyes   

hunger pains...were solved...together   

as well as...harm...confronted

truly...we were guilty of only  

one phony action...   

and that was...laughter   

but if not forced   

...there would be no smiles   

standing on what we were   

given to survive   

...made us proud   

and we were more than happy   

...to be shoulder to shoulder   

on the front line

A great tribute to what, “soldiering,” is.

Well done Asa! I had a friend who worked behind the scenes in Nam as a combat engineer. He died last year from Agent Orange. Even though he worked behind the scenes he still gave his all all because if he did not answer the call for service to his country he would probably still be alive today. For the rest of us, “I salute you and thank you for your service; have a wonderful Memorial Day.”
