Poem

Who Will Speak for the veteran?
He sits alone in his well-worn chair,
for people who said they revered him
He keeps waiting, but nobody is here.

Who Will Speak for the veteran?
that decided to go off to the war.
For men of his time were patriots
they would serve and ask nothing more.

Who Will Speak for the veteran?
He once stood at attention with pride
and promised his nation his 'life's blood,'
and he'd "fight for them all till he died."

Who Will Speak for the veteran?
He wasn't always so gaunt and so grey
He stepped to the sound of the drummer
when he was the youth of the day.

Who Will Speak for the veteran?
by the window he waits for the end
He willingly gave all that was in him
till there was none of him left he could spend.

Who Will Speak for the Old Man?
He weeps when nobody can hear.
The sound that racks the spoiled body,
is a shame that should ring in each ear.

Who Will Speak for the Old Man?
He expects only that which is due
For the person he gave for his country
Merits more than a room -with no view.

Who Will Speak for the Old Man?
He has withered alone and grown old.
And nobody seems to remember
The debt -to the man -that is owed.

I will speak for the old man.
As he sits alone in his veteran's chair
And I will visit the old man
who nobody remembers is there.

I Will Speak for the Old Man.
To prove there are those who still care,
and I promise to keep on returning
so long as he can sit in that chair.

I Will Speak for the Old Man.
For he kept his promise to serve.
I will speak for the old man,!
ITS WHAT VETERAN HEROES DESERVE!
