“Memories Moments”
by
James Newton Rounsavell


Friend Thou Art 
  Friend Thou Be 
  Birth To Death
Then Eternity.

Friendship’s Bond
Mysterious Link
Life Beyond
Heavens Brink.

Memories Moments
From Days Past
Though You’re Absent
Will Last And Last.

Thoughts Of You
Will Linger On
Till We Meet Again
In The Great Beyond.



"Friends"
by
James Newton Rounsavell

 
When You, My Friend, Are Missing
Though With Others I Am Blessed
I Hurt Where I Am Breathing
Pain that Beats Within My Chest.

 
 Very Special As You Are
As Each Friend Should Always Be
Your Loss Would Leave Such A Scar
In The Very Heart Of Me.

Regret I’ve Never Told You
That The Sun Will Rise And Set
In The Time Our Friendship Grew 

  Years Go By, I’m Glad We Met.
 

My Prayer Is That You Be
Always There, Year After Year
From Now Through Eternity
You’re Someone I Hold So Dear.

    James Newton Rounsavell is the Founder of Veterans Golf Park for Disabled Vets.  Jim is a life long golfer and began to realize that golf could help disabled vets with PTSD and TBI, two very degrading but all too common syndromes that affect our Vets.  This site seeks to make others aware of the benefits that can be derived, and creates hope for the thousands of veterans that could use help.  Please help us spread the word!
