With head bowed
I said goodbye as
you died today.
I still don't know why
everyone talks using words
so recklessly...
freedom
humanity
oil
weapons of mass destruction
good over evil
fighting and killing
opening up the door to
freedom.
All I know is
you were buried
today
and you won't see
anymore humanity
or freedom.
Goodbye and
God bless.
Now you
are
free.

Amen poetess Kacy....
too many things are lost when War is spoken.

"and when we get to the pearly gates ...
we'll find what we called our sins were just mistakes."

The hurt of a loss is an indequate compensation for the absence of the loved one. Ken

The yawn of a dawn will hasten the light
