Stains of Life

Into the world, pure ~*~ we protect and shelter, whilst life's avenues open ~~~ sadly, the fortunes of war displays our lost, stains of life ~*~ http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/war-7.php

The sadness of war that handicaps physically, mentally, and emotionally our youth plus ends in death of so many...Great approach to the topic...Glad that I stopped by and read this one..Your presence at my work lifted my spirits and made my morning lighter..Sara

The stains of war weigh heavily on our minds all year long, James, but during the holidays I think about the families of soldiers who can't be home to celebrate Christmas with their loved ones. A lovely tanka, dear Highlander. Peace and joy, Carolyn
