The Poetry of Veterans 
MONUMENTS

We are not statues

Standing among the trees,

A tribute to what has passed.



We are not statues,

Though our faces are stone,

Chiseled by time, shaped by history

That we are now part of,

As it is part of us.



We are living monuments,

Stoic in the shadows

As the world around us moves.



Colin Halloran, 23, senior

Central Connecticut State University
