Fireworks light
The evening sky

Green and red
Yet no one dies

Once in Vietnam
On the Fourth of July

Good night
Old warriors
Wherever you are

Good night
Good night

A short, poignant, and plaintive remembrance of bloody era of our past that is too often forgotten. Well done.

I sure it is never forgotten by those who lived it. Thanks for the reminder, John.
