Premium Member CHU CHA

On the precipice of a dream,
Thirty years in the making,
I have a wheeze in my chest,
And my breathe says "Chu Cha. Chu Cha"
And I wonder whether God will take me home before I get to see my dream come true.
And then I realize, heaven is a dream too!!!
Chu Cha, Chu Cha, Chu Cha, Chu Cha, Chu Cha, Ahh!!!


Ghosts Along the Jungle Path In Vietnam

walking down a lonely trail
in the jungles of Vietnam
fleeing the ghosts of the Viet Kong
down the Chu Chi Trail

pursued by ghosts
and memories of war
and the horror 
that lay beneath my feet 

wondering yet again
was it worth it
the war
the thousands of dead

silent witnesses
lie beneath my feet
silent witnesses
to the folly of war 

as I walk down the jungle path
heading to nowhere
thinking these dark thoughts
talking to my ghostly companions
