The poetic entry in this week’s issue is a powerful piece submitted in honor of Memorial Day, titled as follows:
The Ultimate Gift
No greater love
is there than this:
that one gives his life
for another—
an act which you
have done
my angel of
a brother!
Saving a fellow
soldier’s life
while sacrificing
your own,
words that are now
the epitaph
engraved upon
your stone.
