The poet was able to express his feelings of empathy for the less privileged and would always be a friend to the poor even unto death.
A well written poem with good rhyme and rhythm .

Well written and tells a moving story that only the unknown soldier has experienced. Amidst the annual pomp and ceremony to honor these “unknown souls”
one must wonder if it will ever be enough for the sacrifice they have made. The poet, through the eyes of the unknown soldier from the grave communicates this with empathy. more »

Well written with good rhythm. The poet captures the attention of the reader who gets a good view of the surfer and is excited to know the end result. A great story of a challenge and the positive attitude of someone who was defeated but hopeful.
Well done! more »

Well written! The poet left a vivid picture of the devastation war bings and the emotional toll it takes on soldiers. This poem evokes a feeling of sadness in the reader and the conviction that for many the war still rages on and the need for better mental healthcare. Veterans should not have to feel the need to ease their mental pain alone. more »
