I learned to appreciate our veterans so much more when I took the time to talk with one at a grocery store. He was in a wheel chair and I don't remember exactly how we got into a conversation, but his words touched my heart in a way never to be forgotten.
I thank all veterans and realize there is so much more behind these people than we usually get to see or know.
What might a veteran have to say?

I took some time for a veteran today
I stood and listened to what he had to say
He spoke of health, Agent Orange, tests and grief
his wife and children suffering beyond belief
He didn't cry nor shed even a single tear
about what Agent Orange has done, up to this year
He spoke of his daughter who is going blind
from Agent Orange being passed on in kind
He wished me a happy coming Easter too
Asked what else was there for a person to do?
My heart is sad and my thoughts weigh a ton
for all the heartache given out to this one.
