18th Memory of her in a ring



Met Mary:
she was very young
and always
smiling
and I was called to be
a Soldier in a
bloody War

Got posted in
the Desert/Jungle with my
Army Buddies
Had just one tiny breakdown
with our car

We married
on a sunny day in August
Our Babygirl arrived
within one year
Promotion was the Game
that we were playing
Loud music
started playing in
my ear

My Mary soon
was seeing Pictures in
her Mind
My Buddies went
towards the Pearly Gates
My Parents usually
were disapproving
My Country
wanted Love but just
got Hate

Now
we are
living in our Private
Jungles
Left everything Behind
we once held
Dear
Our second child
a Boy: he started his
Own Dreaming
And there seems absolutely Nothing
left for us
to fear

We thought we had it All
and it all went
its Way
It was like that:
we knew it couldn't stay
We learned
the hard way,
had to help ourselves
From simply nothing
we had Books upon our
Shelves

Mary
Me and Kids
still Working with the Others
Getting older though,
Preparing Ways
to go
Living maybe
in Another Country
Where it will be?
Still yet we do
not know ...

"Forward to the Past
& Back to the Future"
