    Soldier
    By Christopher Sandler

    I wear the eagle on my breast
    Carry the flag at my side
    Carry a rifle at my other
    I fight for my country

    I fight for the freedom
    That my country gives me
    And as Human Beings
    We all should be

    I fight for the equality
    That my country gives me
    And as Human Beings
    We all should be

    I fight for all these rights
    And all these values
    That my country gives me
    And as Human Beings
    We all deserve and all should be
    For I am a Soldier.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
