[bodytext] => He stands tall, excited and proud Watching the flags waving in the crowd Off to fight the battle once again Not knowing how this time it will end He fought the enemy force head on Bravely he stood, but the battle was done He'll go back home, to his final rest Knowing he fought side by side with the best His family and friends gather to say goodbye It's hard to grasp but they will try This man they loved did all he could To keep us free, he did as he should His flag draped coffin stands so proud His honor and sacrifice shouts so loud The honor guard pauses, the flag to respect They hold the corners, their pride to erect Do you the story behind the 13 folds Do you know the honor it holds Each fold, true and formed, stands to show All freedoms, truths, honor, our soldiers' glow The flag is folded, handed to mother or wife To represent his service, his honor, his life To him and others who have given their all Who keep us free, and don't let us fall I say THANK YOU for all you have done Through you, our freedom is won [comments] => 2 [counter] => 156 [topic] => 28 [informant] => dvtpdw [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Patriotic )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
