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
