Linda is making her urgent plea today
to all who read her desperate message;
she asks for comforting words and prayers
for her son Eric, who is going to Iraq, whose
pride and courage reflects a young age.
Go, Eric from your loved Motherland
and bring along the Star-Spangled flag...
to remind you of a mission of liberty,
to open the eyes of those deceived by tyranny;
go, Eric and bring along God's mercy.
Saying goodbye may be too hard,
so let tears flow to release much pain,
and your sacrifice is another child's gain...
an American soldier being there to transform ugliness into beauty,
to let him, or her see how a kind and loving stranger can change their destiny.
Go, Eric and make America proud with your manly ego,
and tell your mom that another unforgettable hero
will be added to the long list of those who planted their seed;
and on his return his family and friends will hug him
and congratulate him for his bravery and grit.
God's protection is invoked by a well-wisher and a caring person like me...
to bring you home in the shortest time, safe and sound;
and may the desert nights help you find that special friend in the stars,
and may the long days resemble the radiant sun's face, and should
you break down and cry: don't let despair be your demise.
Embrace your mother, and kiss her tenderly,
show her how strong and confident you are...
to go overseas and engage in a war still fought with atrocity;
look afar...visualize the moments of your glory:
when you'll land on your adored and beloved shore.

The Woods

For
William McCracken Milroy
In the woods the trees so tall
Mourning birds begin to call
Waiting for the break of day
Scattering seed where it may lay
From the little wooden basket
Which resembles a tiny casket
As far as it may be seen
The willowy grass so green
The leafy branches may break or bend
But in the time it takes to mend
Grow roots so straight and true
Forever catching all the dew
So straight, so true, so strong
At which they do belong
Keeps us all on our toes
So we should always know
The trees so full of Dove
Cooing of their love
Always will return to dust
This great earth belongs to us
After the end
We will begin again

This was written
When I thought
Of the Farm west of
Okmulgee, Oklahoma
Picture life in heaven
perhaps it's time to try
Better safe than sorry
And live with God,on high;
Picture all the people,
Loving day, by day
Picture there,a wedding
a supper with a feast
where the last is first
and the grandest is the least;
Picture all the people,
Loving day, by day
You may say I am dreaming
but I'm not the only one
I pray someday you'll join me
For I know,His will be done
Picture there a river
no curse,no day,no night
Eternally together
The Lord God gives us light;
Picture all the people,
Loving day, by day
You may say I am dreaming
but I'm not the only one
I pray someday you'll join me
For I know,His will be done
