Poems
Mar 2014
They were not out there alone
Freedom reigns where ever we are
It's the reason our warriors fight
Upon their return, show them support
So they know what they fought for was right
From Montezuma to Bataan
and the shores off of Japan
Show each woman, show each man
They were there for us at home
From the jungles of Vietnam
to Iraq and Afghanistan
Show each woman, show each man
they were not out there alone
When they come on home
Show them what is in your heart
Show the pride you have in them
the pride you had right from the start
Welcome them as heroes
To the land they left to fight
Let them sleep in freedoms home
A peaceful rest in the dark night
No matter where they battled
Show them exactly how you feel
Support them in their troubles
Let them know your love is real
Be there to share their stories
Say thanks to them with pride
Welcome them as heroes
They'll feel ten feet tall inside
From Montezuma to Bataan
And the shores off of Japan
Show each woman, show each man
They were there for us at home
From the jungles of Vietnam
To Iraq and Afghanistan
Show each woman, show each man
They were not out there alone.
