Star Spangled Memory

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord wrapped in the laughter and the sounds of a five year old. Truth is marching as I witness commencement exercises across the university law campus. Bombs bursting in air has a truer sound and a detailed message as I reread the letters from my son who serves his country overseas. This is where the real pledge of allegiance is silently read.
