She Sees Butterfly Dreams

She closes her eyes And dreams away Off her man overseas In a foreign country She prays for his safety And the flag that he serves To do their job and come home It's what they all deserve She knows of the dangers But her heart remains strong Back in her arms Where he will always belong She hears on the radio And she views on the news Another patriot lost Their country all solemn and blue She lives day to day For that moment to come On Edwards runway he lands For she knows she will run She will sleep tight tonight With her butterfly dreams All loving and tender For into his arms she will stream http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/love-6.php

James F., You take me to their hearts as they remain separated. All war is like this, exactly as you have written. People praying hoping, dying, bravely. Hugs to you and yours, Dane
