We stand in this great line To east and west it streches Defending the doors protecting a cause God is our ally Upholding our laws No way through our parade The strength apparent In all I have here surveyed They will stand till they fall Giving their all For the cause and gods praise How brave the suns of Adam How lovely the daughters of Eve Awaiting the enemies raid How terrible the enemies How great their joy Killing Gods children in each evil raid Tall we stand behind a great line Naught passes here alive The children fight And children fall Before this terrible drive The end is approaching All men as one We'll break them asunder Then return to the sun When the death is over Then the peace will come How Brave are we standing Toes upon the line How large the fear we fight As they send us over This inpenetrable line Where in a decades time only poppies reside Pride of place in the human race goes to one without a trace, of subtlety style ego or grace for this position, I wish to say, i would be proud as i am greater than any other face in the crowd |

The inevitable war, kind of scary huh? What a trial it will be. I hope it's not in our lifetimes. This was written by a soldier in the battle Walter, it was heroic and inspiring. Bravo The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there IS to celebrate. ~Isis~ (Daughter of Mystery) |
