-
Rifle shots to mourn
beneath softly crying clouds-
-
-
Clinging to the hand
of her Daddy....
-
-
Returning home from a faraway land;
he's silent now no rifle in hand
-
One of America's finest
is laid to rest today
-
American FOOLS!!
Current mood: Absolutely IRATE!!
-
The war rages on
just the latest
-
-
In the dark of night when all is quiet
When silence is the loudest thing you hear
-
-
When you see a veteran walking on the street
Do you ever look into his eyes
-
-
So proud to call him my dear friend,
an Airman standing tall.
-
-
American dream sits center stage,
freedom won at all cost.

with rising and setting sun
I hear that bugle
-
He remembers those days as a teenager,
When he first decided to join the Marines in 'Nam.
-
Through smoke of intense gunfire,
Another soldier down, by enemy attack.
-
I never knew
the true meaning
-
-
I see you standing there.
A mask of determination.
-
Upon my shoulders I bear the blame
-
To my Marine allies and brethren. Semper Fi.
-
Restless nights soon begin,
Sleplessly waiting, my phone in hand.
-
Down in the bunker we licked salty lips
As the young Commander's frightened eyes sought
-
Freedom fighters, born so young.
Lion hearts, from day one.
-
A line has been drawn in the sand
young men and women are about to die
-
What is the answer to burning our bridges
Or is there a solution to it at all

They've been gone
Over seas for years
-
-
From a long journey
the soldier comes home.
-
Let mankind not forget the sacrifice,
of those who have paid the ultimate price,
-
It wasn't the first of many letters,
Nor was it the last,
-
-
From a distance I hear the cries
I see the bombs
-
I see the soldiers fighting on the front line
They're fighting each and every day
-
-
Christmas time is for giving love,
to friends and family.
-
I work in the command post,
You wouldn’t know there everywhere from coast to coast.
-
do you know of the first rock
do you know of that dark day
-
My hair disheveled
As I lay, looking at the moon
-
His name was called
Finally a letter had come
-
Where is God on the battlefield
Where is a lost soul to go
-
What have Americans fought for since we began. A big Thank you to all our military men and women.
-
I see tears forming in your eyes,
and I'm at a loss for words.
-
I watched as you boarded the plane,
I wanted to scream out to you,
-
The day is hot
dry and dusty
