Patriotic Thoughts

        As they search the perimeter of the camp to secure it for the night, the rain soaks through their uniforms. They continue on as if it is nothing new, besides it cools them from the heat of the day they just spent crossing the hot desert with its sand storms blowing in from all directions. At the camp, those that have rest for but a few hours are getting ready to head out to do a recon of a enemy camp in the distance. They each gather their own rations and keep their thoughts to themselves as they get their heads in the frame of mind the mission requires. No one knows how these things might end. Crap happens and sometimes it goes all wrong, but they do it anyway because its what they signed up to do. They signed a "blank check" that says they are there to fight for the rights of others. Some give their lives in this fight and some come home with wounds that are visible to the eye and some come home with wounds that you can never see or know the pain of. All of our soldiers deserve more than they will ever get from our government, but there is no reason that we the people can not show them our pride in what they given for our country and us. It is because of the soldiers and what they continue to give that we have our great country. Thank you to each and every one of you who have served and given your all for us.

Us

As we continue to grow
In our love one for another,
We learn the likes and dislikes
Of each other.
You have your beliefs,
And I have mine,
Even though they are not the same,
We try to be kind.
I accept yours,
Respect your God,
Why is mine a subject
Of constant jibes.
They both have made us
What we are,
I am thankful to Odin
for bringing you back to my heart.
But without God
And the Great Spirit above,
My heart might not have been here,
For you to love.
All together,
Our gods have kept us whole,
So that when the time came
We could join our two souls.

Where Should I Go

Where should I go I ask,
The reply is my own grunt of disgust,
There is no where to go
On this Earth,
For all the power is up above,
With the one's who have gone before.
The one's who worry no more.
The Great Spirit, the God of the world,
As given them a graceful place
To lay their weary heads.
Again I ask, Where can I go?
What do I do to lighten
My load.
Pray to the Great One, The All Knowing,
Pray and when he feels it is right,
He will show you the light.
But ,What do I do now?
The bills are piling and the creditors
Are biting, all wanting to take a chunk
Of something I haven't got.
What should I do?
Pray for patience and strength,
Pray for courage to travel the path,
The path that only you can choose..
Ask for these,
And with these you will see,
I have always been with you,
Couldn't you feel me?
You have survived ,
Time after time,
The hardships of life that you
Have lived thus far.
Through your blind faith,
you have given me your heart,
Your trust in me to do my part.
I will not fail you,
Don't lose faith,
All you have to do is
Pray and wait.

I Am A Survivor

I am tired and my patience is thin,
Tolerance is a little off and
Anger is within.
Stress is up cause of not
Knowing what to do,
Am I gonna sink or swim.
I will swim,
For it is not in me to fail,
I am a survivor who has lived in Hell.

Now my life is on track
And I have a sense of
Fulfillment back.
A long lost love has come back
And my circle of life
Is back on its path.
My heart is whole,
My life is good and I have
Survived another chapter in my book.
