sons and fathers

sons and fathers

A Poem by kmartell

i carried him on my back when he was one i listened to him learn to talk

taught him fishing we never argued and i loved him always and

now he will be off to afghanistan somewhere to  take apart bombs how far can that be,war? what war, how real it has all become.
