honor

o

how

do i even

begin to thank

all the brave men and women

who gave of their lives

so we here at home

would have safe peace

you are all stars

in my eyes!

Notes: this is written especially
for my father Clinton Jarvis

he lost most of his hearing
as a gunner's mate
in the Pacific Theatre
during WWII

he was in the Sea of Japan
during the kamikaze
raids - a terrifying ordeal!
I just want to thank him!
