Here, Now, Forever

To sit and ponder of what you may muse,
The seconds tick by,
But one must be prepared,
Gather your forces, comrades.
Muster your spirits.
We are under attack, I repeat,
We are under attack.
Dont just sit there, sir.
You have parents to love,
A God to worship,
Have faith in yourself.
You will pull through.
It's just a question of how.
They are closing in, sir.
For the love of Christ, give us an order.

I could hear the beat of the drums as the troops awaited marching orders.  Nice work.

What a kick-in-the-pants kind of motivating poem!  Really liked this.  Excellent penning!

I won't go; I won't sleep; I can't breathe until you're resting here with me...
