"On Leave"
April 13, 2010
The crashing waves,
the roaring of guns and planes.
Bombs and explosions,
sounds not pleasing to the ear.
Sights not many have seen,
Sights, not many have lived to tell.
A young man, finally home,
escaping the gloom of war.
A sweet treasured nap,
his best friend on his lap.
no worries, no pain.
For now, in his dreams,
he is at peace.
