Combat Peace Veteran

Our Broken Wings 
Held in Our Hearts of Gold  
And I am  Torn Too
To Shreds
Our feathers shed,
Clawed by The Cat of all Predators
My heartless heart 
And I Kneel weary  before Our Rising Sun
Bathed once more 
In the Glory
Of coming  home...

daisy reilly, There's a lot o' heart in these feathers. Standing together, shoulder to shoulder, with magnificent broken wings. -Richard
