Dedication Poems
Seven Hearts
by Khayelihle Bongiswa Gamedze
The first one is for laughter
And infinite romance.
For smiling and for hugging
For giving me a chance.
The second is for hope;
And longing for tomorrow.
She opens up this heart
Whenever we face sorrow.

In Memory of Late Patrick William O'Connor
by Kinsley Lee
He wrote a poem in the strange land at May,
And he fell as a petal the very next spring day.
He's too young to die for the strange people,
But freedom world, he's the eternal star of sample
Alas, he left a wife and kids at the home,
But leaving a poem as a freedom fighter on the tome
He'd passed one day after, writing which was titled "Korea",
And now he's lying under the hill of the althea.

Mother's Day
by Randy Johnson
It was seven years ago when you celebrated your final Mother's Day.
We had to bury you ten months later when you passed away.
Before you became ill, your death wasn't something that our family anticipated.
We made the doctors do everything they could, including having your leg amputated.
You became a mom in 1967 when you gave birth to my only brother.
You were a unique person and one of the world's greatest mothers.
[Dedicated to Agnes Greene-Johnson (1948-2013) who passed away on March 6, 2013.]
Dedication for a House
by Edgar Bowers
We, who were long together homeless, raise
Brick walls, wood floors, a roof, and windows up
To what sustained us in those threatening days
Unto this end. Alas, that this bright cup
Be empty of the care and life of him
Who should have made it overflow its brim.
Glory's Culmination and Sublimation !
by mv venkataraman
Never create an unwanted obligation,
Mostly avoid any kind of litigation,
Smile offers the best possible sedation,
Avoid gossip as it leads to confusion,
Be wisely friendly by showing affection,
Create in no mind any deadly infection,
If needed, give with concern protection,
If you can't, accept it without hesitation,
Don't make foolishly a wrong derivation,
From mind, let enmity suffer deletion,

On the Yanghwajin Hill
by Kinsley Lee
The red and yellow leaves are waving on the trees
In the afternoon at riverside, cool is the autumn breeze,
The sunny day, the clouds are high in the sky,
In breezing, the ray is warm to the passers-by.
In the very center of the city, on this silent brae,
The eye of the western sky is dropping his ray.
On this hallowed ground. No splendor statures, here,
Were erected, but the headstones with unreadable by the year.

The Ode for the Eternal Love
by Kinsley Lee
(In Memory of Late Captain Kenneth & Nancy Hummerston)
When young, they met at foreign land,
And soon being the lover and happiness’s at hand.
They married and spent their honey moon
But he left her with a word, “I’ll come back, soon”
They only knew the Korea and diarrhea,
But by the order, he departed for the people in Korea.
She’d floated the longing on the Ota-river,

A Dedicatorial Poem to the Veterans of the Korean War
by Kinsley Lee
The hottest summer and the coldest winter,
You’re with the people who did not know by the order,
You’d fought with the soldiers who were from all lands
And offered your hand to the poor and shook hands.
The friends, in the smoke of the powder, you’d supported,
The freedom, in windy and iced ground, you’d guarded.
You’d fought against the invaders to support
The free people, and guarded the democracy fort
In this country. You came back after ceasefire,

The Heroes at Hook Hill of the 2nd Battle
by Kinsley Lee
The many young who did not hesitate
In response to the country's call,
And they encamped to heights of country which located
In the far-east Asia. With all,
Risking their lives, facing the Red
Chinese Army, they achieved the great victory,
Live on not, we must call them heroes
And praise their merits eternally.
(Jan., 26th, 2024, Kinsley Lee)
