In a soldier... <br />Loyalty and strength you see. <br />In a soldier... <br />Discipline, bravery. <br />In a soldier... <br />A world that is free. <br />In a soldier.. <br />Sacrifice, so the world can be free. <br />In a soldier... <br />No compromise. <br />In a soldier... <br />Courage in his eyes. <br />In a soldier... <br />A special bond. <br />In a soldier... <br />Iraq, Viet-Nam. <br />In a soldier... <br />Sad, drooped eyes. <br />In a soldier... <br />Pain, when a buddy dies. <br />In a soldier... <br />Terrible places. <br />In a soldier... <br />Tough, grim faces. <br />In a soldier... <br />Stories untold. <br />In a soldier... <br />Action makes him old. <br />In a soldier... <br />Dark, frightening nights. <br />In a soldier... <br />Missing his lovely wife. <br />In a soldier... <br />Memories of a decent life. <br />In a soldier... <br />Scars deep in the mind. <br />In a soldier... <br />An exploding mine. <br />In a soldier... <br />The thrill of leaving war. <br />In a soldier... <br />No more pains anymore. <br />In a soldier... <br />No more tears. <br />In a soldier... <br />Leaving war, after a long, trying year.<br /><br />Philip Lore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/in-a-soldier-you-will-find/
