Through the thick, lush green of the jungle’s embrace
A team of commandos descends with grace
Roping from helicopters, they brave the unknown
Their mission clear, their determination shown
In the depths of the jungle, a battleground awaits
Where danger and fear these warriors face
But with skill and precision, they navigate the trees
Their resolve unshaken, their spirits fierce and free
With each rope that swings, they descend with might
Their hearts beating as one, ready to fight
They blend into the shadows, like phantoms in the night
Their mission carries on, their purpose burning bright
Through the tangle of vines and the jungle’s dense maze
They press forward, undeterred by the chaotic craze
Their training, their courage, their unity prevails
As they navigate the wilderness, they will not fail
For they are the commandos, the elite of the brave
Roping from helicopters, their dedication they gave
In the heart of the jungle, they answer the call
With unwavering bravery, they stand tall

This poem comes from helicopter training, abseiling into unknown locations before navigating by map to a precise point under strict time pressure. Dropping in, sailing through the air, then hitting the ground running its all part of the job. They call it good fun, but anyone whos done it knows better.
