Original poem about a shell-shocked WWI soldier

in poetry •  8 years ago 

We are on the cusp of losing all of the stories first-person. My grandfather is 95! I hope he lives until 105, but just in case we have recorded his stories. He says, "Be happy. Be friendly." He always is always singing and dancing. Good advice.

Before my father passed away, I recorded his stories as well. I'm so glad I did! I loved listening to his stories! In fact, my first novel, Between Shadow's Ears, was based off of a story my dad used to tell. Your grandfather sounds a lot like my dad. Always happy and positive. Yes, good way to live!
