The Soldier Poets.

The Soldier Poets.

Where ever there is a war,

A poet will surely be there,

With a rifle in his hands,

And bullets rushing through his hair.

 

Like all of his brothers,

He will stand and fight,

Till his very last breath,

Under the suns blistering light.

 

His every feeling and thought,

Will be written by his bloodied hand,

Not asking for your forgiveness,

But for you to understand.

 

If I was to die in any way,

I would hope not to be alone,

But with those brothers on the front,

And maybe have a poem on my headstone.

Hello friend when I was 12 I was hit bya 18 wheeler, the services wouldn't take me, after 911, I called the guard for six months, they wouldn't call me back, so I tried to serve. Just wanted that to be known to you, thank you WS

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
