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?

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"

My Only Son

GONE!

Time is a Thief!

Life's Cycle

As the last golden leaf of  autumn slowly,
whirls and twirls in its dance of death,
to mother earth’s bosom it grudgingly falls.

Un-noticed…
a cool breeze silently lifts it into the
chalky blue sky, higher, higher it glides.

Like a lonely  soul…
where it will land no one knows.
Across the barbwire fence, an
emerald lake, the stubble corn
fields and into the darkness
of oblivion forever to rest.

Only to be replaced in the spring
by a young and tender budding
sprout that will grow into a mighty
oak tree, without a doubt.

Life’s cycle.
