In Honor of our mother and father , "Preacherman" Charlie & "C CoAngel" Joyce

"A Calling" Some of us have obeyed- a silent, soul-touching call from a primeval past- audible only in the ancient, challenging howl of a lonesome wolf from a high, dark and distant hill.

Those choosing to answer- must know that to do so may lead them to a lonely, sometimes perilous path- and an odyssey from which they might not fully return.

For apart of themselves will be left- out there-back along the trail- payment for being witness to places, things, and deeds of which, most of them will not speak-but hinted at perhaps, in the gaze of their eyes-looking into that far distance beyond the horizon; seeing that which is seen only by others who have answered the call- and who know by instinct that they too will bear the brand of an unseen mark upon their souls.

And those who have not heard or answered the call- can only wonder at the mysteries they must have seen- and in their sleep- of what they dream.

Written by Charles F. "The Hawk" Weyant--survivor of Battle of Xa Cam My April 11, 1966--from the book he wrote and sent to Joyce called "An Odyssey in Broken Rhythms and Ragged Lines".
