Today Is To You

*TODAY TO YOU* To those who agree to lay their lives for the sake of the living To those that battle death to live To those that smile to us in the open but pray in the night to see the next day. To those that love their families but have to stand at the gate to ward off the enemies. To those that show love by mounting boarders far away. To this that hide under the green leaves to bring down the evil To those that pull the trigger to save lives To the night watch that make us sleep sound To those whose sleepless nights give us hope of another day as a free man To you whose tears are blurred by the thick threes To those silenced to keep our voices alive To those on the queue to lay their lives for us To you, you and you To you we pray you live for us that we may live. ( ON THE OCCASION OF THE NIGERIAN ARMED FORCES REMEMBRANCE DAY) *FM CONCEPTUAL ???*
