Treasures of Your Soul

Life is Harsh, Life is good Only the few of the proud Those men that stand for a great nation Their life at the stake So rough and sharp Every day is another challenge For them and for all Freedom we all hope But sometimes feel lost Never give up that spark Hope don’t give it up for a price And when I see these great men and woman Risk their life for a single child lost With guns all around and wars of hate I feel blessed as my country truly stands brave A child is a gift of new life and hope As I see the children in their arms saved at last Only then will I ever know true courage This is a path we should always cherish and follow When the flame burns out nothing is left but stay strong So please don’t shed a tear I am right here By your side always and forever Our country stands not alone, but as one Heart filled with love 08-05-13 Poem for Treasures of Your soul contest for Gail
