On Memorial Day....Never Forgotten

[Bill Farnie]

"The Wall"

A slab of black granite that I was afraid of
Afraid because of the many names that I know inscribed
Sometimes I wish mine was there so I could be with my brothers
Survivors guilt I'm told
I'll be with them someday and we will go on patrol once more
Until then, I touch the cold stone and your names
While you touch my soul

Bill

You will never be forgotten
