THE LAST POST
To Stephen Pray 28 February 2013 When we, young patriots, paraded proud to serve our nations each in faith were sworn. Subconsciously a soldier’s oath avowed that brother will a fallen brother mourn. As strangers sharing on the internet poetic thoughts on verse and metric flow A sea apart, although we never met, your life was in your poems for me to know. You’re gone now Steve, I’ll miss your cyber voice, a man who walked life straight and standing tall; A soldier and a gentleman whose choice was always for the better good of all. For bravery displayed in that last stand, my friend, I you salute with open hand. Respects and condolences to the family. I am honoured to have known him. Wally Schwim ·······  ······· |
