We Remember

Pilots
attacked the fleet
at Pearl Harbor, striking
the Navy on December 7.
We fought.
The bombs
detonated.
The fires multiplied,
and so the death toll did rocket.
Senseless.
Observe
Pearl Harbor Day.
Foes attacked. It was a
“date that will live in infamy”.
Always.
Now, we
honor those who
died defending our land.
We remember the lives we lost.
Always.

Paula Frew
Transplanted from Ohio to Kentucky to be near her only daughter and three young grandsons, the author wrote her first poem in the fourth grade. She fell in love with the form and was first published in an anthology at fourteen. A battle with multiple sclerosis has caused her to find her home in a nursing home, where she has found time to craft her poetry as well as time to teach writing to other residents. She has been published in several literary magazines and anthologies, including Ohio Bards and The Walt Whitman Anthology.
