[hometext] => I wrote this poem one day as I reminisced and remembered the unforgettable and influential four years of high school I attended at New Mexico Military Institute. Those great years formed who I am today.
[bodytext] => I can remember marching in the ranks of another time Heart taken By a loyalty that binds All purpose was clear This wisdom was mine. But when I lost this cadence I found myself blind. A cadence was heard One of no fear It brought us together And forever was clear Lead by a voice Heard by all near My cadence was born March on level From here. This boot was worn A metrical foot Taken to front From where I stood Dress and cover Was always the same A parallel life From where I came Front and center Eyes look ahead My futures unseen Caught in Murphy’s bed Instill these dreams Forever they taught subsist within A step I once sought. Rank of another Tangent dreams diminish It is true for all things old This cadence would finish Recollect for wisdom Loyalty grows cold If only to remember Of the purpose it told. -Scott E Buttross Copyright ©2004 Scott E Buttross [comments] => 3 [counter] => 175 [topic] => 21 [informant] => scottbuttross [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
