May 11, 1983 |
In retrospect I now dissect my life and place it here.
Without a plan became a man and journeyed far and near.
I've seen Marseilles and Subic Bay, I've fought on Chosen's shore.
The land of Calm, then Viet Nam, and still, I journeyed more.
In Shannon town I've drunk them down, and Juarez found me there.
As memories pass, some dusky lass I've found exceeding fair.
So little time here in this rhyme to tell of where I've been,
but please take note and you may quote, my dreams take me again.
In Quest of fun I've watched the sun go down on Tokyo Bay.
'Neith azure sky's I've told sweet lies in Bordeaux far away.
I've drank wine near River Rhine, burned my candle at both ends.
So ends my quest of East then West, the Past and Future blends | | © 1983 Hal Ethridge |
