Under the rising sun
The enemy came
Wearing my face.
And my face was changed forever.
Let us not repeat this part of history ever again.

Mahalo, Frances! An emotional read this morning on the anniversary of that day.
Thank you for responding, Lavalily. It’s still happening today, isn’t it? Peace and Aloha to you.
I join you in this prayer, Frances. May it never happen again.
Thank you, Barbara.
Frances would you mind if I posted this to my FB page?
