Soliders
They put their lives on the line
because they choose to
so they can protect us
and so we can be free
their sacrifice
is why our eagle soars
is why we say the pledge
is why we have
the RED
the WHITE
and the BLUE
they were away from their families
loved ones
friends
warm meals
yet, they never gave up
they stood tall and strong
and risked everything
for us
for our country
for our freedom
thank a soldier
let them know that they are appreciated
for their bravery and service.
