| SOME PEOPLE SAY "THIS FIELD" TO THEM IS JUST A PIECE OF GROUND A PLACE WHERE ONCE A YEAR IT SEEMS; THE VETERANS GATHER ROUND. BUT THIS PIECE OF "GROUND" IS SACRED, IT'S A SPECIAL PIECE OF EARTH, WHERE VETERANS SHARE THEIR BURDENS, AND REALIZE THEIR WORTH WHERE MUSIC PLAYS FROM YEARS GONE BY, AND FLAGS ARE FLOWN WITH PRIDE AND TEARS ARE SHED IN EVERY CAMP FOR "BROTHERS" WHO HAVE DIED.. PRAYERS ARE PRAYED FOR "SPECIAL ONES" IT IS THOSE THEY CANNOT FIND, "BROTHERS" SOMEWHERE..OUT THERE LOST THEY WERE LEFT BEHIND THIS SIMPLE PIECE OF LAND IT SEEMS COMES TO LIFE EACH YEAR; AS VETERANS OPEN UP THEIR HEARTS, TO FACE EACH AND EVERY FEAR. AND WITH A MIGHTY "WELCOME HOME" AND HUGS TO ONE ANOTHER. THIS GROUND BECOMES A "HEALING FIELD" WHERE EVERYONE'S YOUR "BROTHER FOR TWENTY YEARS, THESE VETS HAVE CAME WITH WOUNDS THAT HAVE NOT HEALED AND THIS SPECIAL PEICE OF EARTH IT SEEMS; HAS BECAME "THE HEALING FIELD" |
