    Your poems always have that very American touch to them. I've read some of your works before but haven't commented just yet. And, to me, they are very American. I don't know but living in a country situated in Southeast Asia, well, that's my perception of what 'American' is. I love how I never get bored reading your long writes, it's as if I am unraveling your history, it's as if they are taking me to that very moment and very places. There are always some facts and trivia's to be learned in your pieces. And I just really love this... The 'western plains' in the beginning has just got be so absorbed unknowingly. This also reminds me of a poem I read back in Elementary titled 'I Am' and the line: "I am a carefree girl who loves horses." I love this so much! Great job!

      Thanks Mahal for your great comments, it is sad when perception becomes reality!
      I never forgot a Book written called; The Ugly American, and I try to give a good perception of this Country that I love and the remembrance of all our mixed race Military that brought freedom to so many captives of the evil Empires. We had the Navajo High Plains American Indians who spoke their language that neither the German or Japanese Code Breakers could break. (They were called "The Wind talkers" There is a Video of that same name starring Nicolas Cage, it was great!) It was sad about the segregated black and Japanese who had to endure such a hardship, but they proved their Valor and Honor in the Philippine's as well as the Black Forests of Belgium against the ruthless SS Nazis. In the air, the Black's flying the Red Tailed P-51 Mustangs, kicked the crap out of the Nazi's, in fact, they never had a Bomber Group lose even one plane of those they protected, in fact the White Commander of the Group personally requested these Black flyers to protect them. I hope I boosted the good America that I love, and those brave one's lying in the many graves around the World. God bless, Ken
