I appreciate the history contained in this piece. War is ugly and has destroyed so many lives. My father fought in Vietnam. Two tours as a helicopter door gunner. I appreciate your account of what little you know about your father. You managed to provide a vivid visual, without dragging it out, and making this piece lengthy and laborious to read. I would love to know more about your family and upbringing.
This inspired such a feeling of warmth and intensity that only comes with a new love. When I read a poem, I look for beat and flow more than a rhymey piece, but this has all three, without the rhyming feeling like it is being forced on the reader. You managed to pack a punch in a short piece. Powerful. Great piece!
