Notes About The Poem

" SETTING FREEDOM" MY PHOTO, ©

May be an image of nature, twilight, ocean and sky

Freedom's Demise

Taliban advance

Ruinous darkness follow-


Freedom's sun eclipsed!

Sadly it will be a long time before the sun shines again in the hearts of the Afghan people. Hope you're well Demetrios. Tom

How right you are, my friend, Tom. I do not believe that the sun would rise again soon, if ever, in Afghanistan. God bless you. I am fine but Greece is burning!
