Through tattered land and Gun fire day's,
Of things of which no one should see,
Through terror nights and shaking dreams,
Living through things that are not make believe
I am blessed you made it back to me.

Author notes

I don't care what part of the world you are from the world is what it is, And their is no greater blessing then having your loved ones back from war.

    I assume this is about returned soldiers, I like the depth of emotion and sense of relief that underlie this piece, very well written , but I have come to expect no less than that of you.

    Amen! I'll second that thought. YOur author's comments was just as great to read as was the poem itself! YOu certainly did show your "creativity in brevity"! Best wishes in the contest my friend!

    This poem took me back... Since I am a soldier I have been deployed overseas several times. So I know what it feels like to be away for so long, but when I return home to friends and family, there is no better feeling. Your poem took me back to memories I have forgotten. Thank you so much...
