Flowers On a Footlocker

Flowers on a Footlocker

Love that remains forever
Even after two young hearts.
Have gone their separate ways.
And grown old, is in memories:
Pure, simple, sweet, and dreamy
Forever, richer because...love.
Forever remembered because
Adventure…Freedom…War.
And innocence.  Thank God
His name is not on the wall!
