Afghanistan by Gregory R SchelskeCitrus sun
and clever thrush,
bluebird's sonnet
amidst the rush
of broken arrows
and desert cries-
where clouds echo
blue target skies. 05/07/2011 Author's Note: Currently living in Bagram, Afgahnistan. I am witness to creation's song and the devil's destruction every moment of every day.
