Thanks by Micki Peluso
This is a poem thanking our soldiers for protecting our lives.
It is part of a book of poems being sent free to our men and women in
uniform. I think it's appropo for the 4th of July.

All Our Love and Thanks
To all the men and women Who guard our country's ground And place themselves in harm While we sleep . . .safe and sound. Think not that we forget you Please know that we're so proud Your sacrifice, wounds and deaths Noble price paid. . .so well renowned To all the men and women Who left loved ones at home Your pride, your strength, your guts Keepers of freedom. . .so brave, so bold We offer prayers of thanks A pittance of what's owed As bombs burst, wounds bleed And tales of selfless bravery unfold To all the men and women Whose lives are placed at stake We send love, undying faith Our homage, our thanks . . .amen | |

What a beautiful poem - and prayer. I love it!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, someone published a book of poems and short stories to be donated to our service men and women and my short story was picked instead of the poem--so I figured it's make a good blog for the $th.

Thank you Micki, we must always keep our soldiers, airmen, seamen, and marines, National Guard and Reserves in our prayers for protection. I thank God for them!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Deirdre, me too. Where would we be without them?
