A soldier is the true & brave son of our nation <br />Who left his old beloved father and mother <br />Who left behind his sisters and brothers <br />Leaving his beloved children and wife <br />To fight for those whose freedom you granted <br />He crosses the sea, to fight the foe man <br />A soldier serves his country first and his life is left behind <br />He never passes a cry for help <br />Though at times he shook with fear <br />And sometimes he pray to God to forgive him <br />As he has wept unmanly tears <br />He never think about his life <br />He fight for his brothers & sisters safety <br />When fight over, he either come back home <br />Or become a memorable person in everyone's mind <br />Many heart cries for this holy sprite <br />Specially his old mother & father <br />Who are eagerly waiting to see their beloved son <br />They never believe as their son died <br />They take it as he is sick <br />His wife & children become helpless <br />The tears falling from my eyes <br />Whenever I listen a life history of a soldier's life <br />With a hand upon my heart, I feel the pride and respect <br />As our flag waves above you, in her glory and grace. <br />Freedom was the gift that he gives us <br />Pain and death was the price that he ultimately paid. <br />Every day, I pray for these soldiers <br />Who had fought to defend our nation?<br /><br />SWETA LEENA PANDA<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-soldier-16/
