((Of Mind's Change)) Poem by Sailing to windward

((Of Mind's Change))



When young I thought,
''All men should think as I''.........
We prayed and taught,
''don't send our young to die! ''
In vain I sought
to change the reason why,
before I caught
blind hatred in his eye.
Then too, I fought
to hear his dying sigh.
Now cry distraught,
should all men think as I..
