O Battle RageSing out loud
like might beasts
do comrades & me,
in no retreat,
of battles in past

of passion & quest,
curry within,
like tormented Reese,

DAWNs DELIGHTI’m out of mind and sound is dawn’s delight.
A trip, I take, around huddle of trees.

I’m...

fearing the phone's ring.
Twenty.
Twenty years, I was,
learning how goodbye really felt.
Thirty.

and that feels like all for me.
I'm terrified,...

Never Forget Always RememberIt's memorial day
Don't forget it's not OK
To think it's just a day for you
To enjoy a BBQ
And have an extra long weekend
Forgetting lives lost who defend
Your freedom and paid the price
With their unselfish sacrifice
Keep them...

No doubt he was the bravest of the brave
And that is what I call a hero
No, what I meant he is my superhero
His military pension...

Wash my fair feet, silver stream
as you whisper to the pebbles,
watch my face as you float white clouds!
high up in the blue, blue sky,
smile at...

I wander through the murmurs of a forgotten meadow,
where time weaves through the tall grass,
and the stones speak softly of the past.
Old, weathered headstones, stoic and silent,
etched with names...
