A field lies before me, white amongst the mown grasses where birds fight to find and hoard the squirm of a worm. A field of souls, countless souls. Laid to rest amongst the tears and sadness, the whispers of a child. Asking a mother “where is Daddy”? Stones that stand as testaments to those that rest. Saying to the world that this is where warriors, brave men and women lie. Laud them, applaud them, bow reverently to them. For they are our heroes....and be not afraid to cry.... For tears were shed at their birth and fittingly should be at their death... God bless them all... [This message has been edited by Magnus (05-24-2006 10:21 PM).] |

Emotionally I KNOW that Canada is the best country in the world! |
