National POW/MIA
Recognition Day

TO ALL OF THE POW/MIA U.S. MILITARY PERSONNEL:

YOU ARE *NOT* FORGOTTEN!

YOU ARE *NEVER* FORGOTTEN!

GOD *ALWAYS* REMEMBERS YOU!

-Paul Whiting
(a.k.a., Small All White in the Forest)
"I am no barrier to its sun; the light and I are as one!"

My Poetic Notes:

The reason that I wrote this poem can be summed up with the following statement: To All Of The POW/MIA United States Military Personnel:

You Are *Not* Forgotten!
You Are *Never* Forgotten!
God *Always* Remembers You!

Also, beginning in January 2013, I tried to create a post for virtually every holiday and special occasion of which I was aware, but I realized by September 2014 that I did not have enough time and energy to continue posting for every holiday and special occasion. And I decided to keep the poems in that series which were the most relevant to this blog, of which this is one.

And this poem was also published on my "Paul Whiting — A Creative Writer" blog (please see the hyperlink below for the blog), since I feel that the message in this poem applies to the message that I am trying to convey through "Paul Whiting — A Creative Writer."

This poem was written in Portland, Oregon.
