Description

Yesterday was a day that a lot of us don't know from memory, but from history. For those who fell in service to their country during World War II on December 7th,1941 I submit this... Tribute What ships are these that in ghostly waters lie? Bound by phantom sailors, not afraid to die. Men who left their homeland far across the sea, Those who died for freedom, justice, liberty To those of us much younger Pearl Harbor is History Somewhere in Hawaii, a place of Infamy. Have you fathers, brothers, loved ones buried 'neath the foam? They are gone, but not forgotten, by those of us at home. Apophysis 2.03b Postwork: PSP7, Flaming Pear/Flood 00:19 12/8/2005 Leanndra I apologize for the lateness of the post, but I have been trying to get online here off and on since 21:00 hrs, yesterday evening! I hope you enjoy this image and poem. Thanks for stopping to look, read, comment, and think!

wow! this is awesome and the poetry is so superb! what a wonderful tribute...and, as a vet, it is so nice and comforting to know that there are Americans who appreciate the sacrifices our men and women of the military have made...some the ultimate sacrifice...thank you, Lea! :)V

I thought of my Father & Uncles most of yesterday. Pearl Harbor was why they enlisted. Thanks Lea!

I am not a former military of any branch, not even salva army. I do appreciate the ultimate price paid by many soldiers fighting wars for freedom . what bothers me is leaders ordering men/women into battle for their ego trips, no matter what country it maybe. your prose is so incredible Leanndra and your imagination outstanding

Beautiful elegant design that so well fits its purpose!. Fully agree with Richard's words, and in my case did serve in the Argentine Air Force for nearly 15 months. In our particular historical circumstance, we would engage in combat in a war that wasn't ours...it was theirs.
