Someday you will leave me sleeping on empty sheetS
Everyday on the news, I know not to believE
Ready for your mind to recoveR
Going out for war agian, fighting for our flaG
Entering my mind, thoughts of your absencE
Always imagining you dressed in your class A
Never giving up the fight for your natioN
Treading through the hot sand, you’re always in my hearT

Beautifully written here, I love shadow acrostics. Very creative and strong message here, the start of this made me want to cry!

Yeah Ita All Right

Excellent job. As a military man myself, I could really appreciate the sentiment. AS I prepare to redeploy to Iraq myself (again) I wonder if this is how my wife feels. I'll share it with her and see.

Wonderful
Very well done. best of luck in the contest.

This is so sweet. I can't imagine how hard it would be having a loved one over in the war. They are courageous men fighting for a beautiful cause.
I'm really impressed with the mirrored acrostic. I personally have never written one, only acrostic.
Great job and good luck in the contest!!
