Standing Tall

God bless all the men and women
who serve the red, white and blue
they put their lives on the line
they sacrifice for me and for you

They chose to serve their country
walking proud and standing tall
defending this great nation
so many soldiers have given all

The Air Force, the Army and Navy
and the Marines fight in this war
sacrificing for love of country
freedom is always worth fighting for

It is a lonely time in Baghdad
sounds of silence heard in the night
mortars are heard in the distance
the silence is broken as they fight

Remember our fine brave soldiers
their loved ones are so far away
remember to thank each and everyone
let us remember them as we pray  

GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS

    Another wonderful poem for our troops. I'm sure you are thinking of BJ with the National Guard down in New Orleans helping in the recovery and rescue of victims. You must be a very proud Grandma! I hope he stays safe. ~ Linny
