They travel like blood brothers in sync with each other protecting each others back confidential thoughts in unison like a well oiled chain rescuing those in danger for emergencies they are trained haunting eyes in the darkness patroling enemy swamps watching and waiting like a panther in the dark waiting to pounce as they quietly embark they do not think of themselves while performing their mission performing their tasks with confidence and ammunition for their families and them we pray the Special Forces Navy Seals and Green Berets "To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides." ~ David Viscott [This message has been edited by Victoria (01-08-2002 01:12 PM).] |

This reminded me of a dear friend of mine, who, lost many during the Viet Nam war, and although they were not real brothers, he weeps still, remembering the closeness they felt. Kathleen-- |

Yes, and the other Airmen, Marines, Sailors, and Dogfaces. God bless them and keep them safe to return to their loved ones! Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Indeed, they are all in our prayers...and no one should ever forget that theirs is not an easy task. |

Such a sweet poem to praise those fighting terrorism, which ceauses fear and death throughout this world. I couldn't be happier to see these people doing a great job overseas. I am in the NAtional Guard, and I can understand the point that they are in. I am so proud of my thousands of brothers fighting for us to live more peaceful lives. Great write, I really enjoyed this.
