Three Legged Table
THREE LEGGED TABLE
We are a three legged table
But we can no longer stand
Our son’s no longer with us
And we try to understand
How to cope with our loss
Called to fight for our land
Sent out to the front line
To that unit undermanned
Now here we are just three
Not a future we’d planned
But the bombs keep falling
As waves of war are fanned
Both loving him and country
A blue and yellow armband
