A soldier

Thank you soldiers
CATEGORY: FILK TIMES READ: 2056 RATING: 9.0 (G) SERIES: FIREFLY
A soldier gives their life
so we may live ours
A soldier sacrifices all
for people they don't know
When a soldier dies
how are they treated?
With "Taps" and a burial
some at sea, some on land
Why do soldiers have to die
by the hand of our enemies?
Why can't we all live in peace and harmony?
As a soldier arrives home from a long battle
they are greeted with cheers by people
they don't know as well as people they do
A soldier is a hero among us all
I owe my freedom and rights
to unknown soldiers.....Thank you soldiers

Very moving, thought provoking.
Makes me think not only of all the soldiers who are fighting out in the middle east but also how our BDHs fought in their war and came to realise how futile it can all be.
Sigh... Why cant we all just get along?
Why cant we all be as optimistic and friendly as Kaylee? Surely then the world would be a better place?
Anyway, shiny poem hon
