Love Of Country
 

I am dead for love of country
A keeper of the flame
Reach out to all the others
That fell in freedom's name

Said Hello to Patrick Tillman
Shook hands with Dr. King
Broke bread with all my brothers
Who paid for freedom's ring

Lives throughout the ages
The sum of human kind
Fill tomes of many pages
But seldom you will find

Men who fought for freedom
On someone else's shore
End a tyrant's season
Without a taste for war

In oath we lose our brothers
And many more will die
For our love of country
Is freedom's battle cry

beautiful.....thank you

Thank you for sharing .... this is something we shouldn't only think about one day of the year.

I agree, very nice and with a significant meaning behind it.
