Greetings, Sum1's Home! I discovered this on the Read & Review page and decided to review it. *Smile*


*Quill* First of all, my reviews are intended to be helpful and encouraging, not hurtful in any way. Use what you feel works for you, and leave the rest.


What I Liked

         *Bullet* I'm quite patriotic and my family has served in the military, so this poem drew me in. My uncle served in Vietnam, my father-in-law in Normandy, and other members also served though not in a war. I've lost no one to war, but I could have. I know others who did. It's heart-wrenching. Thank you for sharing this beautifully written reminder of those who have died fighting for our freedom.


Suggestions to Consider

         *Bullet* The rhymes and the meter weren't always right-on, but this still worked for me. In fact, for some odd reason, I could hear Johnny Cash's voice as I read through this with his guitar playing in the background as he read your words and it sounded perfect. I know that's weird, but true!


Final Thoughts

         This is a great piece and a great tribute to those who not only lost their lives, but the soldiers who carry the memories of their comrades. *Heart*


Have a great day and...*Quill*
