Support Our Troops

Stationed overseas; their families left alone Uniformed impeccably; their braveness now condoned People often forget the sacrifice our soldiers have given to this war Proudly serving our country, believing it was cause worth fighting for Ordered to a far away land; his life is on the line Rationalizing a theory; that has now become non-benign Terrorism forgotten and what they brought upon our land Observing the lack of appreciation as they put their lives in each others hands Unsuccessfully keeping the loyalty of this Great Nation all abroad Representation of some Americans, now simply seems a façade Treason is an attribute that we as Americans should surely shun Reasoning with terrorist was once a taboo; never to be done Once again our soldiers fighting to keep it Army Strong Only if non-supporters could see what the supporters have seen all along Patriotic with perseverance; a soldier will never quit Supporting our American soldier is a creed we should never forget © Stacy Lynn Stiles
