Mom and Dad have gone to war,
To protect the USA from being poor

Gas prices , Oil continue to go up
It's the Terrorists fault
They just don't give up

Our Economy, Recession is in such a mess
Real Estate Prices too I must confess.
Spiral  downward than they used to be.

Grandma and Grandpa take care of me
Mom and Dad have gone to Iraq
In the Military now
They are forced to attack

I hope they come home soon from Iraq
I want them to come back really fast.

It should be against the rules and may be, I didn't think of that.  I got the idea for writing this poem from a childrens book that has a little girl who's parents have gone to war and she writes them everyday.  I was so touched by the book that I wrote the poem
