the thought of 
the loving the war 
that you thought was 
the thing to kiss yes yes

the light through yes yes 

Love that you go to 
the line of the thought 
that the light is the helpful

Great job, Hann -The perfect poem for Memorial Day - You continue to improve and inspire me every wee. I'm so proud of the young woman you've become, and your grandfathers would be, too.
