DRUM ROLL PLEASE

Steady beat Orchestra plays Trumpet sounds A Soldier goes to war, but might not come back Every sunrise and sunset Every foot stepping march moving in courage Every salute being an honor Symbolic nature Eye on individual military uniform Thank you for your service Echoes of War in sacrifice The thought of devastation Ashes that rise with a darkened shade Front and center made by a Soldier Purple Heart reminder Commitment Mission Control The Soldier taking whole The Battlefield Point of circumstance Situation at hand Ammunition response Music extending in the distance A soldier’s life cut short in an instance The aftermath A final salute and departure Every effort that was made Fulfillment of service Drum roll honor Salute
