Poem Artwork



I miss you most at this time of year

Gone to occupy a nation that doesn’t want you there

You have no choice in this matter

You did your job and won the war

The President said so May 1, 2003

 

The conflict now is a civil war

You don’t belong there

I miss you

I love you

May some one realize this is wrong!

 

We lose when we get involved

Someone else’s civil war isn’t a place for us

The results are always bad

Not at all what they should be

You are my hero

And always will be

 

Our heroic soldiers obeying orders from above

Losing their lives needlessly

I love you

Please stay safe

Come home as soon as you can

Merry Christmas Heroes!

This is the opinion of many and I tend to agree, whatever legitimate reason the US had for going into Iraq has been lost in the mist of fine blood sprayed out of these breave young men who fight for flag and country.

Yes indeed, it is a civil war. And in the way we left America to its own war, we should do the same.

I second my prayers to our men and women in uniform, far from home: may they come home, safe, soon. In Jesus' Name, Amen. Beautiful meaningful prayer, Annie, well penned.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
