| A Hero |  |
| Standing here looking at this stone,
you're someone I've never known.
but I can feel your spirit,
your voice I can almost hear it.
Eyes looking back at me are stoic,
your expression is so heroic.
Your life you courageously gave,
for the home of the brave.
America you proudly defended,
and you will always be commended.
America will always be proud of you,
you're the proud, the brave, and the few.
You sacrificed your life for those,
who turned their back to oppose.
Freedom will always be worth,
the the reason you left this earth.
Heroes don't come back from war,
over America their spirits soar.
Thank you soldier for being brave,
sacrificing your life for mine to save. | By Jamie Badour
