Ariana

During this holiday, I would like to remember those who gave their life to fight for freedom in Ariana (Afghanistan).  Here is a poem I wrote on Christmas day...dedicated to the many who bravely fought & died for freedom on foreign soil.

"Ariana...
In this foreign, yet familiar land
Lies not but a memory
Foretold by the stars
Barely a lifetime of moments
Paid with the river of blood and tears
One last drawn breath
Culminating with a final heartbeat".
-Christina Regina Maiava Schaff
