Soldiers Of War

A poem for our soldiers of war.

Soldiers Of War

 

Soldiers of war what can

I do to show you I care?

Seeing streams of flaming

flares on the TV screens,

reminds me of warfare.

 

My mind drifts to thoughts

you scared out there.

How I yearn to reach out and

hold your trembling hand to

provide relief to your sweaty nightmares.

 

When you come back angry

and hostile from your tragic

memories I want to show I care.
