Butler Pennsylvania 47 Normandy She was standing on the porch that day in June watching her youngest come running up the steps and across the lawn when it happened on the beach at Omaha where her oldest lay, face down, no longer clawing at wet sand. She stood there, quiet, holding him close, fingering his hair. from: Small Town, U.S.A. |
