Array ( [sid] => 163403 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => THANK YOU, AMERICA! [time] => 2010-11-24 10:46:56 [hometext] => A Vietnamese American expresses his feelings and thoughts on Thanksgiving Day [bodytext] => THANK YOU, AMERICA!

Thank you, America! for rescuing us from hell,
Humble humans deprived of all rights to life.
In our old country our enemies cruelly quell
Laborers, intellects, revolutionaries, monks alike.

Thank you, America! for teaching us systematism
By which military is only a part of attribution.
In our late republic existed militarism
Causing dictatorship to erode the constitution.

Thank you, America! for the example to settle
The difference between politics and religion.
In our poor nation the priests did meddle
In worldly powers, and it was mutual demolition.

Thank you, America! for granting us medium
To develop our bodies and expand our minds.
In our left-behind state there is no freedom
To work and enjoy, think and express any kinds.

Thank you, America! for nursing us deep hope
For a near future we can True Virtue attain
So that our Motherland emerge on the globe,
Our People, with your help, Man’s Value regain.

THANH-THANH

I'm really sorry that no one has commented on this write.
I wish every American solder that fought over there could read this write because when the came home from that war they didn't get the appreciation they needed for their time away from home.
I know they would bow their heads and humbly say thanks for this awesome write.
It really touches me deep because I appreciate all our soldiers that fall in harms way no matter where our country sends them. Even tho they may never understand they still give their lives daily for the cause.
Thank you for taking the time to say thank you Americans.
God bless you and happy Thanksgiving,
emy
