Remember the Veterans
Europe in '93

We thought the wars over
'til we laid down to rest
guns, tanks, barking dogs
were heard in our heads
Germany, Luxembourg,
Holland, France
war haunted our sleep
how could it last
From out of the heavens
came this command
"Free these dear souls
from the hell of the past."
Walking battlefields, cemeteries
my sister and I
acknowledged, telepathed
with those who are dead
Thousands took notice
piled weapons in heaps
ten abreast they crossed over
the Bridge to the Light
Military, civilian
all countries alike
God welcomed each one
"Come home. Rest."
The pain and the warring
were gone from the air
peace was on their side
and we felt it here.
