Two Poems from our Tributes, Memorials Poetry Collection

 
 
A Poem for the Soldiers
   
Author: Angelica Havard
   
Poem:
A Poem for the Soldiers
   
  THIS POEM IS FOR THE SOLDIERS
WHO STAND AND FIGHT TODAY
SO WE ALL CAN LIVE TOGETHER
AND LOOK FORWARD TO EACH DAY
I WANT TO THANK THEM
FOR EVERYTHING THEY'VE DONE
INCLUDING BATTLES LOST
BUT ESPECIALLY BATTLES WON
IF IT WEREN'T FOR SOLDIERS
WE ALL WOULD LIVE IN FEAR
BUT NOW THERE IS NO WORRY
BECAUSE A SOLDIERS ALWAYS NEAR
A SOLDIER ALWAYS STEPS FOWARD
STANDING THERE SO TALL
NO MATTER WHAT THE BATTLE IS
THAT SOLDIER FIGHTS FOR US ALL
NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE
THAT SOLDIER FIGHTS FOR YOU
WHY DOES HE STAND AND FIGHT YOU ASK
BECAUSE A SOLDIERS ALWAYS TRUE
I THANK ALL THE SOLDIERS
WHO FIGHT ACROSS THE SEAS
FOR FIGHTING FOR THEIR COUNTRY
AND KEEPING US ALL FREE
ALL YOU PEOPLE WHO DON'T APPRECIATE
WHAT OUR SOLDIERS HAVE DONE
I DON'T SEE YOU FIGHTING FOR YOU FREEDOM
BY DODGING BULLETS FOR A GUN
AN AMERICAN SOLDIER'S HEART
IS ALWAYS FULL OF PRIDE
SO SHOULD THEIR FAMILIES
EVEN IF THEIR SOLDIER DIED
THANK ALL THE SOLDIERS
WHO STAND TALL AND FIGHT
SO WE CAN WAKE UP EACH DAY
AND SLEEP PEACEFULLY THROUGH THE NIGHT

My Shadow
   
Author: Krista Clinebell
   
Poem: My Shadow
   

Shadows don't always let their presence known.
They can't always be seen, even when you're alone.
Shadows are there to match each step of the way.
They are there no matter what happens, or what you
say.
Shadows often stand behind you, but can lead the
way as well.
They have been there to build you up, or caught you when you fell.
Shadows are our silent partner in life, always
connected some how.
I've never really identified my shadow . . . not
until now.
Looking back it's easy to see, what my shadow is
to me.
My shadow loves generously and without conviction.
My shadow gives of herself without hesitation.
My shadow allows me to see myself larger than
reality.
My shadow doesn't hesitiate to suffer quietly.
To my shadow I have this to say . . .
I don't regret knowing you every single day.
You've made me who I am, strong and true.
To my Mother, my shadow, I'll always love you.
