Woman Soldier's Love

She is crawling day and night in the bushes of faraway land the call of national duty heavy on her shoulder But a hero she is on earth she has time to write to a friend has time to think about family the thought of intimacy unabated Soldier-woman, attention listen to this lyric let your heart fill with fires of love make your being jump with joy someone is waiting for you Far away but near you are unseen in day light but alive and active in dreams let this honeyed breath of love be free for the winds of Afghanistan dry dusts of Arabia, Somalia to carry them through the clouds and whisper in your longing heart sweetness of lit up love that never die
