Hello folks, I have a poem was found on a 19 year old soldier killed
in viet nam.
Hello God
Look god, I have never spoken to you. But now i want to say;
"how do you do" You see God , they told me, You didn`t exist......
And like a fool I believed all of this.
Last night from a shell hole I saw your sky-- I figured right then, they
had told me a lie
Had I take the time to see the things you made
I`d know they weren`t calling a spade a spade,
I wonder God if you would shake my hand somehow I feel you will
understand.
Funny, I had to come to this hellish place, before I had time to see
your face. Well, I guess there isn`t much more to say.
But I`am sure glad , God. I met you today
I guess the zero hour will soon be here
But I`am not afraid since I know you are near.
The signal-well, God -I`ll have to go,I like you lots this I want you to know.
Look now-this will be a horrible flight,
who knows I may - come to your house tonight.
Though I wasn`t friendly with you before,
I wonder God -If you`d wait at your door---
Look I`am crying, me shedding tears,I wish I had known you these many years.
Well , I`ll have to go now, God --Good bye
Strange---Since I met you---I`am not afraid to die.
