Presten Traxler Poet Free verse

One Marine

Freedom won
Lost of one
Lives touched
Standing proud

One by one
Life on the line
Bullets to bombs
Freedom is the fight

Trained for war
Forward they go
Front line is the spot
Here to fight

21 shots
Folded flag present
There he goes
One brave marine he was

Tim Smith November 24, 2015 at 2:13 PM Beautiful but sad Presten. I tip my cap to the brave marine. Presten Traxler November 24, 2015 at 3:04 PM Thank you. I plan to give it to my great aunt because my great uncle died this year. I wrote that for her.
