Wars End

Contributed by chacha on Tuesday, 24th January 2012 @ 11:56:02 AM in AEST
Topic: war



The troops are coming home
They say the war is over
Could this be their lucky day
Is this their four leaf clover?

Give praise to all those Soldiers
Who fought with so much pride.
Was all that fighting worth it?
Worth the price of those who died?

Don't think of them as Soldiers
But Sons, Brothers, Husbands and Wives
And for some, they are no more,
They fought and gave their lives.

War is never a good thing.
Whatever the reason may be.
Fighting for a piece of land
Or to keep our country free.

So now the war has ended.
And the world's a safer place.
For the children that lost their Dad
There's only sadness in their face.

Ten years of fighting a war.
Ten years for the war to end?
All that pain and suffering,
How long will that take to mend?

Stop the threat of terrorism
That's why we fight and die.
To "Keep this country free"
That will be our battle cry.

Hopefully a quiet cry
We pray to the almighty Lord
For now, after all this time,
Let's stop dying by the sword.

Bravo, fine expression of our thanks.
Wars may be over but for those who there they never really end. Support our troops there and after they are home.
