for Ché
(14 June 1928 – 9 October 1967)
The Wind Carries His Name.
They shot him down,
to silence a man of flesh and bone.
Even as the bullets tore through him,
the wind carried his name.
Far across the weary fields,
high above the stubborn peaks,
over the blood soaked streams,
the wind carried his name.
They shot him down,
to silence a man of flesh and bone.
Yet the wind carries his name,
to you and to me,
to them and to us.
They shot him down,
but his name resounds,
as it floats on the breeze.
They still try to shoot him down
to silence us all,
to stifle an ideal.
But the wind cannot be stilled,
and the wind carries his name.

Che was a hero to me. Yesterday and today. He is still remembered. Men who fight for freedom and the right. Are never forgotten.
