A New Dawn

A new dawn, a new day
More Shells and Bullets will come our way
Our spirits are kept up buy our togetherness
As we sleep among the dead I guess
A letter from home from those who care
Who miss us dearly knowing we cannot be there
The rain now falls all around damp and soggy
Amongst the mist shadows become foggy
But we must fight on for country and king
For we know what we are doing is the right thing 
Defeat the enemy is our greatest desire
Along with being home with our loved ones 
Beside the fire
In someone’s arms we love so dear
Determined to make it home never fear
That goodnight kiss I feel keeps me going still
To the end whatever may be God’s will
