Hope And Pray

Marching to time

Always a drill sergeant

Better listen to what

He has to say.

 

Orders are orders

Some you dislike

But all have to be

Carried out or you're done.

 

Time will come when alone

And the enemy is before you.

No time to think, just fire away

To the last bullet, hope and pray.

There are things...you would do differently
...more in sync with your consciousness, moral
standards, professional ethics...But war is a cruel
game!...you're there to take order...enemy dictates
the "rules".
Great Job, Great Poem, George.
Thank you for both.
With warm regards Isabella.
