Falling Everyday
Allie you will always
be my divine angel
my dream come true
cause every morning
when I open my eyes
I fall in love with you

“SEABEES COVER SELVES IN BOUGAINVILLE LANDING” – First Hand Account
Landing under fire at Empress Augusta Bay, Bougainville, Seabees first joined with Marines in defending the beaches against counter-attack, then got busy on construction of military roads feeding front lines. The fighting builders ran one of their roads 700 yards in advance of the Marines’ front lines before the Leathernecks yelled for them to hold up a while.
Sizable detachments of Seabees, who stormed ashore with Marine assault trrops in the first,second, and third waves to land on Bougainville in the Solomon Islands, distinguished themselves by the skill and valor with which they filled their combat assignments.

Open Advice: Education Direction
I’ll like to try something new and allow more interaction with my readers. I have a reader’s letter below and instead of me giving the advice, YOU dish your advice out. I’ll consolidate my advice with yours and repost this article out next week.

Into the Night
There she was
appearing again
standing in the half-light
the moon in her hand.
Honeysuckle watfting
intense white

A goddess of mystery,

a Giver of Forgiveness,
a Crafter of Disorder.
Intoxicating thoughts,
a cosmic creation,
reality borders blurred
mind topples
from concentration.
From supernatural,
she comes
as myths she creates
feigned innocence at once
in tempting the Fates.
Reaching towards infinity
grasping thin air
like a dove in flight
a mermaid so fair.
And on distant dreams
such fairy children go
showering imagination
melting memories in tow.
