How to erase history!

Seasons of my life

Why Do We Stand?

I'll Always Be There!

I Feel Just Like a Baby!



That's Life!

That's Life!

War is Hell

Oh! Where did it all go?

Untitled

Disrespect?

'OH! My,my,my!"

Warriors

Disrespect!

Beware!

Untitled

Forgive and Forget?

So Why Should I?

Fifty Years Later

All in a DAY

A Warrior's Soul

"Good Life"

"If"

My Only Son

GONE!

"American Pie"

War is Hell!

Daream Catcher

Time is a Thief!

Ode to T/Sgt. Glenn Wilson

Never To Late!

Sad, but True

There is sadness in us all,
sometimes it hurts so much.
Silently we weep as our
tears tumble and fall.

Depression, disillusion,
disappointment.
Disdain for the
path we’ve chosen.

No one to name,
no one to blame.
We must endure
the shame.

We chose the path.
We did the math.
We must accept the
inevitable wrath.

There’s no turning back.
Life is unforgiving if you’ve
taken the wrong track.  

If we could get a second
chance in time, I’m sure
we could make it all rhyme.

But we all know that’s not
about to happen this time.
