my beloved, very young nephew, tony mcgovern, has just been deployed to somewhere in afghanistan. carries me back to 1968 when two of my brothers were in vietnam at the same time.
may you stay safe, tony!
Oh this tugs at the heart, Carolyn. Beautifully written for your loved one and I can only imagine the emotions your family, along with so many other military families, must endure. God bless your nephew and all those fighting for our freedoms. ~Hugs, Elizabeth
You beautifully cut through the swathe of mixed emotions and realms of the totally inexpressible to produce an airy yet deeply meaningful plea/prayer/meditation that will be daily etched on hearts and minds that share it. May they always be safeguarded by this circle of love and protection. xx
beautiful words to a mournful write
it echoes prayers we constantly recited
when our son was deployed
to the first Iraqi war "Desert Storm"
Love & peace with you and your Nephew
So many memories of my own season of duty (in the military) are stirred up in this, and all the rush of emotion that came with it rushes up once again in me. You deal with this in a vulnerable and sensitive way CGMB. Sharing this must have been hard. Peace and continued inspiration to you ... richard
Peace
