Never Forget
Ruth M. Horowitz
When the smoke cleared,
When the ovens cooled,
When the gates opened,
We vowed we would
Never forget!
When the graves were uncovered,
When the skeletons were seen,
When the stretchers were carried out,
We vowed we would
Never forget!
When the stories were told,
When we cried hot tears,
When we held the survivors,
We vowed we would
Never forget!
When the last of them is gone,
When we stop telling their story,
When the years cloud the horror,
And it becomes history,
Who will remember?

A Trbute To My Husband
Libby Klein
I did not see him, but he saw me.
Youth had its ways and its ecstasy.
How could I have known,
At that place and time,
That young man would soon be mine?
We journeyed through life, had more to learn.
Along came our children and life took a turn.
How quickly they grew, made us so proud.
They gave us our grand-children, now we're a crowd.
Our blessings are many, the tears shed were few,
The joy of our lives are a tribute to you

Before we get to Reuben Starkman's "fish" story, let me remind you that contributors should send their work as an attachment to their Email to riart1@aol.com or include it within the body of that Email. Reuben's story was submitted as a page from News & Views where it appeared several years ago and had to be scanned into the blog. As you can see, my skills at scanning are minimal, so please, only send me text attachments or put it into the body of your Email. JPG attachments are okay if they are just pictures. Reuben's story stretched the limits of my techie expertise. But put on a sweater and slicker and enjoy his story.
