Thank you for taking the time.
To protect what's yours, as well as mine.
You've chosen to put your lives on hold.
Going off to places, I'd never willingly go.
Most of you will come under attack.
You may never get home, because you had my back.
So very young, when usually you start.
Yet so full of grace, and wisdom, and
unselfish hearts.
Boys, and girls, become women, and men.
Sometimes before we ever see them again.
Trying to make the bad in this world right.
It really is an impossible, never ending fight.
So I for one, will never forget any of you.
I am free, because of all that you do.
What can one give in return for this gift?
Not very much, but my humble thank you, that's it!
