The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

A honey baked life

Promised a honey baked life by Uncle Sam,
a V.A. loan, and a mini-van.
Three kids and a fenced yard.
It should be attainable to those who
worked so hard.
They served, they sacrificed as mother's wept,
came home to be forgotten to a government
that's inept..
Our unsung hero's who fought gallantly, are
supposed to be our nations first priority..

I agree. Great first line! Let us remember our vets…especially those who served in war zone.
