Letters etc... to the Vietnam Vets Wall
"Hi , Grandpa!"
Hi Uncle Joe!. I miss the way
you used to play with me,
those many years ago!"
"Hey, there, Frank, nice to see
you again! just to let you know,
saw some of your buddies, last
weekend!"
"How long has it been, since
we came to say hi? Do you recall,
might have been last July!"
Note: Dear Uncle Jake, I just
turned ten! Mom didn't come
this time, but she will some
day again!
I wish that I had met you,
you were mom's fav'
she always tell me stories
of way back in "the days"!
I miss you baby, I miss your
close soft hugs,
I miss when I used to give
you lots of long back rubs...
I miss you all the time, and
even since I married,
nobody could ever take
your place, your my "true
Love", I love you, Barry!
Note: Hi Ray, well, alot
has changed in my life,
lost my hair, but gained a wife,
three kids in college, and
really solid!
I think of you, and others too,
when I see the red white and blue!
Thought I 'd come , just me,
alone, and share or talk, or pick a
bone!
Here's a letter from your sister,
SUe, who said "say hi!" (she misses
you too!)
your friend always, Ben B.
James, I wanted to come to see
you, I love the flowers that Dan left
for you, and the American Flag Bear
that the kids left too!
James , we have another grandbaby!
We named him after you...!
Love, Sis
So many letters, and
so many words,
so much love spread,
still sadness is heard...
but, we don't have to say,
any goodbyes, just
because they 've
moved on, because they've
died....
Yes, they may have all gone,
But, they will be remembered
for years and years on!

This is an ode to the ones that died in the Vietnam War, and this is to those that miss their friends, family and more from then!
