When geese fill The evening sky And Vee’s follow Line upon line Across clouds tinged Red as the blood shed By brothers on Foreign soil, I too long to ride On wings of wind Escaping the cold Which creeps into Bones that remember Too many who Won’t make The trip again. Longing for ears Filled with the rush Of passing distance And brothers… Sisters… Others… I remember less Raucous cries And processions Of suited passing |

this is haunting and pulls tears into the sockets and a lump into the throat...well done, mournfully well done |

A good poem for the politicians and military to ponder, though they may only know one "V" -- that of "victory"... over what, exactly...? A heavy write, Ron -- makes the heart heavy... -MVS "When you tell the Truth, you never have to remember what you just said." |
