much less stood in Flanders Fields
Never been in the trenches,
or walked through the ruins of my efforts
I've always had warm meals and my bed.

no one governs the thoughts in my head.
I do not understand war
or necessary evils of any kind.
The casualties so grave,
this sort of loss
has not been mine.
There is no way to remember
what I can't even fathom.
But I will never forget
how grateful I am for these truths.
And to those who
afforded them
at such a cost.
I pray the poppies help you sleep.
Love,
gratitude
and peace.
