A Letter Home
For six long months Lina’s mind was awhirl,
Still grievant for the loss of her daughter,
“She always seem’d a fit & healthy girl,
Then why would she die of pneumonia”
“My darling wife,
We must give up her ghost,”
His toast receiv’d the knife while Friedrich fetch’d the post.
Canto III
The German invasion of Russia
“Papa, this is Khan’s handwriting,”
Max snatch’d it out of his hand,
Such tensions serv’d the opening,
Those too few contents soon scann’d,
“All is well! But he is missing,
Mama, the food’s so bland…
Ev’rywhere the army victorious…
He’s sure he vil be home before Christmas!”
“I’m the proudest I’ve ever been,
My boy he ist so brave!”
Xaver’s eyes sheen film’d with dark green,
Affection he did crave,
So rush’d to join the U‐boat arm, for action & the wave.
