Vietnam Reflections 11
vietnam reflections 11
“I saw your brother today.
He stopped by on his way
to work.
Said he felt like a jerk
for treating you so badly.
Sadly I can’t...
I can’t remember what he does.
He said he was
to busy to stay and talk.
Guess I’ll take a little walk…
Can you stay for lunch?
I love you both a bunch...
Sure wish you boys could get along
Remember my son,
two wrongs
don’t make a right.”
She kissed me and held me tight
then turned around to leave.
She will never believe,
my precious Mom,
that forty years ago today
he was blown away
in a hell called Vietnam.
