 A New Year

 

Semper Fidelis

Born to salute.

Always faithful

An absolute!

 

Fought for freedom

A cause to protect.

Died with honors

Nineteen Sixty-Eight.

 

Attempt at glory

Fourth day to recover.

Enemy at their door

Remains uncovered.

 

Forty-four gone by

A generation cries.

Saluting...

Until they die.

 

A new generation

My voice rings clear.

Semper Fi...

It’s a new year.
