Women of War |  | Alongside men they fight side by side
Willing to face the danger with pride.
No nobler cause could they hope to enforce
They fight for country and die with no remorse.
Battling on the horrific front lines
They see death and destruction many times.
Seen as an equal in war and in peace
They could be your wife, sister or niece.
Hoping to live and return to their home
They know they may die on enemies loam.
Faced with the terrors of a cruel war
Praying return from their enemies shore.
Never forget these brave young women
They fight to protect what we’ve been given.
Upon their return to our nation's shores
Give them the thanks due mine and yours. | By Scott Stone
