Pearl Harbor come this falling light, ‘twas swiftly bereft as in crept solemn dark, and I was left to deal, surreal, with the lone ghost of you I needed moonlight, a window with view drew into my warm lungs clear, cold, clean air yet your ghost came, held your head in despair your eyes pierced my heart, for you I still long war took you quick; you, to me, still belong battle fought, red crested straight from your breast having given all, you had stood your test you had cheered for glory, and it is nigh you had flown your heart, victory flies high good lives were lost, though peace came to our time you gave yours for us, I still give you mine |

I enjoyed this. Any positive recognition given to our military is something I greatly appreciate. My father was in the navy, though not stationed at Pearl, thank goodness. Michael Michael Auguste~ |

Fitting trubute to men and history. Probably no other event change the American outlook on safety and prestige the way the attack on Pearl Harbor did. "I am not now that which I have been." |
