Like a child
in great soldier's clothes,

amid the snow
that soaks my feet,
makes me cold,

watching a front
colder still,

I watch,
my head
upon your breast,

your heart
throbbing

a lullaby.

John...

the depth of this
almost goes beyond emotion...

I've read it several times.

All I can say, is,
I appreciate your talents very much.

Overwhelming events always make us long for a reassuring embrace.

Your words dilate and fill the screen with emotion.

Love, Margherita

An interest choice of words/topics. O'reilly was just talking about that on the factor... like the theme of finding security in a time of chaos.

Battle of Stalingrad... A major battle between German and Soviet troops in WORLD WAR II. The battle was fought in the winter of 1942-1943 and ended with the surrender of an entire German army. Stalingrad was considered a major turning point of the war in favor of the ALLIES.
