A Soldier’s Tribute Raymond Meir Jr.
War is not a time for fun and play, It’s a time where our friends are shipped away. They are taken to lands a yonder, To fight for freedom, pride, and honor. The soldiers are gone and families worry, Hoping the war will end in a hurry. Days will pass and nights will fall, And soon loved ones will get the call. The call that says their soldier has passed, And that on a Sunday, there shall be mass. The friends cry and the family bellows, Sadness to see their soldier stiff and mellow. So every time the flag flies high, Remember there’s a soldier that fights and dies. And to this I give my salute To finish this, small soldier’s tribute. 11/28/11 Grade 11 Riverside High School
