"My wish"

"My wish"

A Poem by Randall

Barrett, my grandson.
I would be proud if he became a Marine as I am.
But sadden of the things he must learn to do.
He is but four years, with a wild but gentle soul.
Perhaps if we work hard for peace.
And he earns the title of Marine.
He will not have to use what he must learn. 
Only standing guard, prepared!
