Oldtrooper Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 This is a poem that I wrote in 2005 when my son was on his first deployment to Afghanistan ... The photo of him was taken on Christmas Eve on a mountain top near the Pakistan border ... I am not a professional writer, but if you find yourself liking it, feel free to share it. Gathered with families 'round Christmas trees brightFamiliar old carols give peace to the nightSnug in warm houses, safe from all harmDo you think of the soldier alone in the storm?He sits on a mountain, blown by the windsFar from his home, his family, his friendsHe bows to the snow stinging his faceForgotten by most in this far away placeHe's been many places far from his homeThe Argonne, Belleau Wood, New Guinea, BastogneBataan, the Hürtgen, Saipan, and IncheonThe Yalu, and Chosin, Ia Drang, and Khe SanhFallujah, and Bagdad, Takur Ghar, Nad-e-AliShin Kalay, Lashkar Gah, and the Korengal ValleyHe's there for his country, he answered the callTo preserve with his life the freedom of allSo pause for a moment this holiday seasonGive thanks for your blessings, reflect on the reasonThat your family about you and all that you ownIs preserved as a gift from a soldier unknown~Steve ShacklefordDecember 2005 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2ndArmored Posted December 24, 2021 Report Share Posted December 24, 2021 (edited) Hark! I broke my Thompson sling.And my L drum's got a ding.Brass is scarce and primers less.Reactive targets are a mess.But I loveTo make some noiseWith all ofMy Class III toys.Santa knows just what I need:Bullets that fly with extra speed.Hark! I broke my Thompson sling.Hope that my stocking has those things. Edited December 24, 2021 by 2ndArmored 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
