Ladies and Gentlemen, I repost this for a good man, a great actor and a wonderful human being. His name was Mako Iwamatsu and he died 6 years ago this week on the 21st. Let us all remember the man who helped bring Iroh to life for all of us.
Thank you.
PS I know it’s a bit early but why remember the man for a day when you can do a whole week instead?
Leaves from the vine
Falling so slow
Like fragile tiny shells
Drifting in the foam
Little soldier boy
Come marching home
Brave soldier boy
Comes marching home
Those leaves did grow
From branches overgrown
Drifting slowly down
Resting on the loam
Little soldier boy
Taken from home
Forced to fight a war
That’s not his own
Leaves from the vine
Falling so slow
Like fragile tiny shells
Drifting in the foam
Little soldier boy says
“Carry me home”
Sleeping soldier boy Is carried home
TEARS
TEARS STREAMING DOWN MY FACE
