Door left wide open
Sitting on the back porch
Watching the waves crash
Hearing the roar of the ocean
Sun beating on my face
Drink in hand
Mind not wondering
Thoughts are calm
At peace
A strange feeling for a man once at war
Now those memories a distant past
I can breathe
And exhale all the burden I’ve carried
Cheers to peace
