An angel of mercy surrounded by death
I Love You!Anna;until my final breath
Year of 1944 in some town of Bastogne
A nurse from Paris so fearfully alone

Constant bombing lights starless night
Wounded screams lend a dreadful fright
She's smeared w/blood & chilling stare
Precious small hands w/beauty so fair

Germans advance on this battered town
Bodies strewn on the snow filled ground
These men cut off yet they shun defeat
In a War this guardian & angel did meet

With skillful hands and courage to save
The harrowing events yet mightily brave
Her eyes filled w/tears as another died
An urge to scream as I stood by her side

Haunted by memories of the dying breaths
Victory nor Defeat masks untimely deaths
Some soldiers duty to claim a life today
We tirelessly attempt to cheat death away

Dear Anna;I'm devastated that you're gone
I have your blue scarf but a heart is torn
Just a soldiers dream of winning her heart
Though the battle and toils kept us apart

Rest now sweet angel for you are at peace
No longer dwell where man acts like beast
Know in your heart with each prayer I say
Eventually we'll be together 4ever I day

Cy, that was an excellent poem my friend.. and I know it's based on a true story, I saw the band of brother series, and I know exactly the two people you speak of.. awesome write Cy..

Wow!very kewl bro.Yep! that's 1 of my all time fav.'s 4 sure.I served w/101st Airborne myself.Though thankfully not in WW2 hey.That was very moving indeed which of course inspired me 2 write a short piece on it.It leaves U haunted in a sense because if there love had been allowed 2 blossom vs.the sad outcome in the story.Thx!4 reading bro.Ur bearific friend 4ever.Godspeed!Cy

It's one of my favorites as well, I actually watched it quite a few times, I did have the series once, but my exwife ended up with it..

Very intense and haunting, yet with hope/promise for future reunion ....

Thx!sweetheart.Your words are so true indeed.
