Author's notes: In a very weird twist, and without having manipulated anything, the number of words in this poem was exactly the average of the two companion pieces. Oddly enough, each had 16 lines, which has always been my favorite number and is today's date!

Feedback: Greatly appreciated.

*****

He jokes, she smiles

Dress blues, blue dress

Honor, duty

Got lost, found the way

Courage, conviction

Willing to sacrifice, not willing to give up

Battle-worn, beautiful

Fighting for peace, searching for truth

Smart ass, way smarter

Would rather die, so that she may live

Hands never idle, thoughts never cease

Six years, five friends

Four teammates, three months

Two hearts, one love

A new beginning, without end

Sam and Jack, full circle
