And so it was :

[eagle326]

Just thought I'd throw this out to you . I've played with words since I was about 10 or 11 years old.
And being that I'm growing long in the tooth I figure why not get some true opinions of my thoughts.



Henceforth I give you ( And so it was )


And so it was
Though they said it wasn't
But yet others said it was
And no one knew the truth :

For unto them was given wisdom
For unto them was given truth
Yet they sought out philosophy
Instead of their history :

Never encouraged to find their roots
Only the lives that fit them best
Having never worn the combat boot
Wanting only life's best :

Safe and sound with in their beds
Not caring if my brother is alive or dead
His broken body do I carry
To the chopper waiting :

Oh Great Spirit hear my plea
If you must save one
Let it be he and take my soiled soul to thee :

If I live a thousand years
My soul's worth ; Is less than he
For my brother is more than life
He's my reason to give my life :

Freedom is as freedom does
Fight today and live free tomorrow
Forget not the battle
Forget not death's rattle
Unto Valhalla does my being soar :

To many I'm a dinosaur
To others ; I'm a curiosity
Who is he who cares not to live or die ?
This is the question ; That brings tears to my eyes :

If you care not for your brother's life
What right do you have to live
I have his 6 as he has mine
It's not about a matter of living
As it is ; About quality time :
