THE WALL OF FACES

A butterfly lights beside us like a sunbeam
And for a brief moment its glory
and beauty belong to our world
But then it flies again
And though we wish it could have stayed...
We feel lucky to have seen it.

Jimmy Don was the best

Jimmy Don was my first best friend. starting back in the 2nd grade. He moved away from Ft Smith after the 6th grade, 1961. Only saw him once more at a track meet a Northside High school in spring of l967. I was on leave for Vietnam when Jimmy was KIA. I did not attend his funeral, but later found his grave, which I visit often and taking others with me.
