Heroes Behind Weary Eyes Poem by Ronald Strickland

Heroes Behind Weary Eyes

Rating: 4.0


Gazing through weary eyes are heroes
from wars that have gone by.
A war that has passed in time,
wars come, with each leaving it's
heroes to fight in silence
that war in thought.
The old gaze upon the younger,
heroes of a war yet to pass.
Heroes answered our country's call
to meet a destiny for
our country's freedom.
Heroes who served,
and went different path's in life,
come together as brothers,
through a common bond,
and relive times from the past,
brings a smile from behind weary eyes.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Veteran's see The Younger Hero's At The VA..Vietnam Veterans deal with their life experiences in our unpopular war in so many ways differently. We all search for what we lost in that war. Believing at times that we found it. Securely knowing it may never be found. We cry in the shadows. and get lost in our distance stares. sometimes just lost in a blank space in time. I read here that one should write down in a journal of your experience. and that's a good ideal. Write it down for a moment remember and let things go. I enjoy writing my dreams and recalling my life's journal. I put my in what i call my thoughts of life in poetry that i find when I'm lost and i have gone to that space without dreams to find what i lost. i try to put into a poem (my journal) that i share and i do find some peace. Thank you for your comments, and allowing me to show what i find in that distance space. with poetry
