Ruby Austin-Drain Poet Rhyme

For All Who Care For All of Us

For all who Care for all of us 
For all who fight for my right to be free 

For all who fight so I am allowed to be me 

For all who have paid the ultimate price 

when a simple thank you will not suffice 

For all who can see what it's like to have life taken away 

For all who make sure wer'e all here another day 

The courage and bravery that you have shown 

The love in your hearts for your country and home 

And all of you standing ready and willing to fight  

Doing your best to do what is right 

My words may not be much but they are all I have to give 

And that which you are fighting for is my life to live 

So no a simple thank you could never be enough 

But maybe one with a heartfelt kiss and a great big hug 

Fighting for America and what is tried and true 

Fighting for all of us for the Red White and Blue

Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
