Bombs, Destruction, Death and Deployment
A commitment you chose to fulfill
It was your sustaining will
Honor you Soldiers
Battles that were far and near
You acted swiftly in showing no fear
The enemy was everywhere and there, but you continued to preserver
You watched steadily from the stretches
Gunfire flying high over your head
Yet you continued on the battlefield being your stead
You stayed the course while being the force
Once again I salute you Soldier
It’s Veterans Day in honoring you in celebration
Your stance has me at attention
Your eye contact being the mission at hand
You are a Soldier being always in demand
It doesn’t matter if it is the past, present or future
It doesn’t matter what brand of military or rank
A Soldier is a Soldier
Up is my hand in salute, and the horizon being your reflection
It’s Veterans Day being the indication
A war in what you saw
I salute you on that score.
