The Vietnam War:
Learning to Care, Caring to Learn
by Pat Bowes


The following poem written by a young woman to her boyfriend in Vietnam
expresses the feeling of why this unit was written:





Things You Didn’t Do



Remember the day
I borrowed your brand new car
and I dented it?
I thought you’d kill me,



but you didn’t.



And remember the time
I dragged you to the beach,
and you said it would rain and it did?
I thought you’d say, “I told you so,”



but you didn’t.



Do you remember the time
I flirted with all the guys
to make you jealous,
and you were?
I thought you’d leave me,



but you didn’t.




Do you remember the time
I spilled strawberry pie all-over
your car rug?
I thought you’d hit the roof,



but you didn’t.




Yes, there were a lot of things you didn’t do.
But you put up with me,
and you loved me,
and you protected me.




There were a lot of things
I wanted to make up to you
when you came back from Vietnam.














But you didn’t.
