A Soldier's Song

“A Soldier’s Song” I was traveling on this road I didn’t know were I was going or which way to go But then I saw this man who was all alone He told me eventually ill make it home He showed me so much love I knew then it was God above That’s why now I can say I’m home I’m going home were I know best I’m going home to complete my test To were I can be made whole Take back everything the devil stole I’m going home were there is happiness I’m going home I’m going home I’m going home When I get back home I’m going to try my best To praise and shout because I’m never a guest Meeting all my friends when I walk in Putting on your Glory Throwing away all my sin You showed me so much love I knew it was from far above That’s why now I can say I’m home Just imagine how far I was away I never imagined this will be the day I would receive my medal of honor I came home to be my children father I’m home I’m home I am Home

Your poem comes alive within the reader's heart as the story unfolds gently before us. This poetic trip though the heart is, thought provoking, descriptive, and creative all rolled up into a beautiful feel good poem. Well written. Emile.
