To My Mom, And all the Mom's out there!

Dear Mom

Not so long ago
We were babes in your loving arms
We were kids playing in your backyard
We were young teens riding our bikes
We were teenagers spreading our wings
We were young adults seeking your advice
You were with us through all these things
Through good times and bad
We can never forget all the love you gave
The hugs and kisses we craved
We only want to say
On this special day
You have been the angel at our side
A mom who gave us love and pride
We always keep you in our night time prayers
We will always remember you
Holding us in your old rocking chair

Happy Mothers Day

Marci Cook

Marci Cook
You’re on my mind
It’s been years ago
That you were mine
It seems to me only yesterday
We were laughing, sharing, loving
In our own special way
I don’t mind telling you Marci
That I really do love you
They say the first love
You never forget
But I’m afraid you’ve forgotten
Has time taken its toll
Or have you tried
To forget me

May 23. 1972 (Gulf of Anadyr, Russia) Somewhere we were not suppose to be!

We were told if we were caught everything would be O.K. (name rank and serial number)
Yes Sir!…… Sir! Yes Sir!
So anyway, I wrote this for a guy who used to read the crap I wrote while we were at sea.
He had a girl back home that he would talk about all the time named Marci Cook –
I really liked the name Marci Cook. Bob was a great guy and friend –
He asked if I could write him something for her as us being where we were, we were all scared, lonely and stupid. So I wrote this for him/her….
I think he sent it to her
