To serve is a blessing <br />to battle is a endless honor <br />to all that served we salute <br />for the dead we praise their heroism <br />to drape they coffin with our flag <br />a 21 gun salute, flags at half staff <br />we give very little to the wounded <br />they suffer the most, life ever changing <br />suffering pain, fighting the nightmares <br />left to heal, lots to deal with <br />from the bed they fight for life <br />pray for healing, what their families are dealing <br />life changes, minds destroyed, bodies mangled <br />they fight to survive, strong then life <br />stronger than us, they will over come <br />wounds will heal, the nightmares remain <br />coping with new limbs and faces <br />proud they stand, Honor they are <br />Heroes to all, loved by all <br />thanking for serving, your real deserving <br />the wounded soldier, the beholder <br />our deserving heroes, our icons <br />a salute to all of you <br />all will not be forgotten <br />your in our hearts, its an honor <br />Salute Wounded Soldiers<br /><br />Michael Peterson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/salute-wounded-soldier/
