I Am a Soldier

here i sit feeling sad and 
alone                                                                                                                              
 far away from my family ,if i could only get to a 
phone                                                                                                                             
 missing my wife,my kids,watching them grow 
up                                                                                                                                   
 havent seen my dog,since she was a little 
pup                                                                                                                                 
 but i represent so proudly,our red,white,and 
blue                                                                                                                                
 hoping you at home,appreciate the sacrifice i make for 
you

Thank you for you sacrifice. I am very familiar with the sacrifice of giving up my husband as he is off representing the Red White and Blue. I have great respect and appreciation for all our soldiers and their families. Best wishes to you all, Wonderful write. Ashley
