MY THOUGHTS; IF I WERE THERE!
Here I am so far away…
Fighting on this Christmas Day…
Full of dust and throat so dry…
But still I am a proud G.I.!
I take discomfort well in stride…
And often hide my pain inside…
But it’s all worth what I go through…
To keep you safe and these folks too!
For that’s my mission and our goal…
And why we fight with heart and soul!
Though you and I are miles apart…
Every second you’re in my heart!
So when you gaze upon my chair…
Though I am here; I still am there!
No war will keep these thoughts away…
Especially on this Christmas day!
Even here, like in our land…
I’ll still pay homage to that “Man”!
For without Jesus and His birth…
There’d be no Christmas… or peace on earth!
God Bless, and Merry Christmas!
… My darling!
