The White Rose of the Lost Garden

Norman is a combat medic. His only wish is to make it home alive and see his father again. Anderson is a gardener waiting for his son to return. Every day, he wipes the furniture, airs out old clothes, and waits at the street corner for someone who may never come back. An unfinished letter home, a withered white rose, a lifeless garden, and the final deadly bullet brought by peace. An anti-war short story, complete.
