Deluge of Soldiers At Normandy

There seemed to be so much suspense And Normandy did make the difference Many soldiers had all been on edge As they looked up at a high ledge. Hitler was with a deluded dream Of being best and reigning supreme As water reached each soldier's waste Approaching shore as they made haste. Soldiers' bodies became soaking wet And as closer to shore they would get Were filled with fear and did tremble Saw American Flag such a great symbol. So many great soldiers were to be selected Much from them had been expected On broad beach all eventually landed By a leader each one was commanded. Finally it was now over and done Could see setting of another sun They had always been very brave And many had ended up in a grave.
