It is not as if I believe War has no place in the world at al, but we must consider long and hard before we commit to one.....for the children. My husband is a disabled Vietnam Vet due to Agents Orange, White and Blue.
After returning from Vietnam he decided to be a teacher. He wanted to become a teacher because of the faces of the children he saw in War torn Vietnam. He wanted to make a difference in the world and felt it began with the children. He taught in gang zones, high school and middle schools and encouraged freedom of thought. He listened. After teaching for 18 years he was forced to leave something he loved, his disability would no longer allow him to teach.
Without Blinking
Last night I dreamed it
I hope it's not true
the shelter for many
had grown to quite few
No resting spaces
and no quiet time
they're closing up our borders
and standing by their lines
hoping the few who're left standing
will die< br> in little time
Oh my God
we're killing thousands
without thinking at all
Oh my God
we're killing thousands
without blinking
Some people have no faces
they live with withered hearts
they sing Amazing Grace only
because they know their parts
In a hungry lost world
it's not enough to say
I go to church on Sundays
and before I eat I pray
