"Soldiers of the Land" is a tribute to the unwavering dedication and sacrifice of the soldiers who serve on the front lines, the "ground pounders" who are the backbone of our nation's defense. This poem captures the spirit of their courage, resilience, and unwavering commitment to protecting our freedoms.

It acknowledges the hardships they endure and the sacrifices they make, emphasizing the bonds of camaraderie and the strength they find in unity. I hope this poem serves as a reminder of their vital role and a heartfelt expression of gratitude for their service.

Listen to poem:
From the plains of green, to the mountains high, 
We march as one, beneath the sky. 
With rifles in hand, and hearts of steel, 
We're soldiers of the land, our courage to reveal.

We're the ground pounders, the backbone of the nation, 
Defending our freedom, with unwavering passion, 
Through mud and rain, we'll fight the fight, 
For liberty and justice, morning and night.

We've faced the enemy, on foreign shores, 
Our courage has been tested, time and time before. 
But with comrades by our side, we'll never fall, 
United as one, we'll answer the call.

We're the ground pounders, the backbone of the nation, 
Defending our freedom, with unwavering passion. 
Through mud and rain, we'll fight the fight, 
For liberty and justice, morning and night.

We've seen the horrors, the pain, the loss, 
But our spirit remains, unbroken and strong. 
For our country, our families, we'll give our all, 
Defenders of the land, we'll answer the call.

We're the ground pounders, the backbone of the nation, 
Defending our freedom, with unwavering passion. 
Through mud and rain, we'll fight the fight, 
For liberty and justice, morning and night.
