For H.S.T.

For H.S.T.



I write this for Hunter --the latest of many
I write this for Jack, for Neal
I write this for Carl and Denny
I write for those before  --and those beyond
I'll for Tim and Devin
I'll write for our bond
I'll write this for Jamie --and that dark road he walks
I write for his smile
I write for stories told
I'll write for who'll I'll be --and I'll realize I'm him
I'll write again for myself --when the world begins to dim.
