Honor Bound:
We stood guard over them As they laid there still Dew formed on the poncho’s From the evening chill Some of us prayed While some walked on by Others solemnly stared While some men cried It was not easy to be a man When we were so young To deal with so much death Under the Vietnam sun Yet here lay our brothers Some mother’s son Ashen and pale Their war is done They fought hard in the battle Their precious life’s blood they gave Fought for freedom with honor To preserve the American way We will watch over them with pride Until they are air lifted away If war comes to visit There will be hell to pay These gallant Men of honor Will never be left alone Come hell or high water We’ll see they get home Semper Fidelis ? Hail the Red White And Blue We will honor our country As long as they honor you… Boon…. A different Remembrance Sept/11/03 |
