THE HUMAN FACES OF AMERICAN VETERANS
Ive traveled far along lifes road
Ive seen many things and places.
My fascination never ends with the things I see in the faces of American Veterans.
The faces young veterans,
So open
free of guile with eyes that say I trust
Accept, always ready with a smile.
The faces wounded veterans
They reveal how much they grieve.
Their eyes reflect their desperate need for a reason to believe.
The faces of veterans who are survivors
Those whove made it through their storm. Theyve fought their fight
Theyve paid their price and now theyre safe and warm to some degree.
The faces that I love the most are the faces of the old veterans.
Those lines
those dimming eyes reveal the memories they hold.
Memories that must be shared with the citizens of their beloved country.
I see character and wisdom gained through years of joy and strife.
They help me see what I might be when I too have lived a life.
I thank my God for the human faces I see in the Veterans who served in the
Armed Forces of the United States of America.
Dr. Charles W. Edwards, Jr.
Department Chaplain
American Legion & Disabled American Veterans
