Takin' the Shot |
|
|
When old,
it is a golf course
and a fair drive,
that puts you between the sun and the green.
It is your shot
take it
or leave it
... and you take it.
Perfect!
Just perfect!
... and right upon the green!
(... none saw it
but you.)
I walk toward the green and remember
the shots
forgotten.
... shots that counted!
... so long ago
in Vietnam. |
