Many are the thoughts that escape me,
As I ponder with pen in hand.
As a simple poet, thoughts are essential
To convey the essence of a poem.
Having been to many Countries
At the behest of my government.
Fighting a war that had no end,
As far as history can recollect.
Yet there were snap shots
Left in my mind of where
My footprints had trod on foreign land.
Wonder of wonders I lived through it.
But that's another story to be told,
And is not the thought I'm having now.
Well the idea I was going to mention
Has escaped me, so this is the end.
no doubt..blurred, so
reload for another..

The essence of a poem
whether it be by pen
or footprints.

My thinking has been shaped differently. While I did visit countries that were under martial law and fearful of government failure, I was enchanted by the people, their lifestyles, ambitions, and generally, peaceful and friendly nature.
As a result, I love the people of the world in all their colors. I resent leaders who continually force their power and greed on their own people and think war is always an option to pursue.
