How poignant was that! The most valued possession was one of honor! What happens to men who are highly decorated and yet never seem to overcome the effects of war! Awesome poem! sam

I really like your poetry. A man like this started coming to our church about a year ago. Many have done what they can to help him is small ways. He is doing much better and is happier. It's "easier" for people to ignore the homeless and down and outers, but God sees all of them all the time.
