This Old Sailor Salutes Them by Reese Turner In Their Memory writing prompt entry |
Man, have I enjoyed a great life!
I've been free to be what I choose It was not magic, this freedom, Many others paid high dues. From the Village Green, Concord,
Past many battlefields over years So many risked life and many died Many have grieved, shed tears. No country can compare in time
Of freedom and life’s opportunity None have offered such hope for Us to maximize our lives as free. Such freedom comes at a high price
This old sailor’s SALUTE to they Who stepped up to the line for me And all of our beloved, U.S.A. What a debt I owe, it’s a good thing
I believe in Heaven, for an eternity; It will take that long to thank Them all for what they gave to me.
