Stand Silently and Listen
If you stand
silently and listen
you can hear them
still today.
Sounds carried
across time and space
of wars fought long ago
and yesterday.
Battles won and lost
by men and woman
born with a fire
in their hearts.
They walk this land today
unseen by anyone
fighting forever
battles we can't see.
If you stand
silently and listen
you can hear them
still today.
