A sense of urgency
Stranded by time
A calling missed long ago
Now a need to explore
To investigate and research events long past
Finding a way to contribute spanning unattainable decades
The calling has come
Though only in my 30's
Events occurring over 60 years before scream for attention
While unable to change the past
The past may become the teacher for tomorrow
Guiding those in a race against time
A race that leads those on the front lines
Toward a victory
A victory that in the end, will allow our way of life to endure
A way of life, those fighting, dream of returning home to
A way of life we must keep sacred for their return
A Sacred Return we all pray for
