My Father Is a Veteran
My Father Is A Veteran
What is there really left to say
For father is veteran on every day;
He and I military we both were in?;
So where should I really start to begin?
On active duty Navy my Dad did die,
We never found out or will know why;
He enlisted which took a lot of nerve
And for his country honorably did serve.
Buried him deep in Mediterranean Sea
Now from this world he is finally free
And for his country whole life did give
So in freedom the rest of us could live.
