< no flying today >
(from WWII letters)
ray heinrich
there will be no flying today the wind says
singing its notes
its music
suspended just a few feet off the ground
it promises gales
and earlier
the forecast was for storms
so mostly
i sit and think of home
and worry again
if i'll return
just like the other people here
i am not special
except to you
and you
how are you now?
the wind is strong today
i listen to it sing outside the house
its music making promises of gales
and the radio
earlier
said there might be storms
but mostly
it talked of war
and i worry again
if you'll return
just like the other people here
i am not special
except to you
and you
where are you now?
