Vietnam Reflections 19
vietnam reflections 19
we are heading north toward the high country
light footfalls on the thickly carpeted jungle floor
laying miles of ground behind us
heading to where we were before
not one word is spoken
not one leaf is broken
our silence intact
we are all of one mind
this time no one will be left behind
we are heading back
to where it all began
before we so hastily departed
we are going back
battle scarred and hardened
we are of one mind
and that being
that this time
we will finish what was started.
