Its the night before I say goodbye <br />To my youngest son <br />He leaves tomorrow for a foreign land <br />To chase bad guys on the run <br />I know he knows what this means <br />Deep down in his soul <br />He said yes as he raised his hand <br />Now his life has a new role <br />Its not like he wants to go <br />But he feels that he must <br />Theres so much going on before his eyes <br />So much wrong and unjust <br />He'll fight his way to help this land <br />Keeping us all free <br />A good man at twenty one <br />So full of bravery <br />Just keep this in mind son <br />We're rooting for the flag <br />Thats what makes it all worthwhile <br />Never be afraid to brag <br />Heres to you and all of em son <br />That have given up so much <br />You'll be in our prayers every night <br />You're the only ones this country trust<br /><br />Tim Rawson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/daddys-little-boy/
