I saw
your Mother on television today. Her face was
sad as her tears flowed. I have never met you
or heard your name, But you’re someone I wish I
could know.
It seems hero’s lives may be to
short, But your death will help others be free.
They say you died doing what you love
Because you love all Americans like
me.
As I watch the bombs blast that
desert city, I know there are many young people
like you Who answered the call to the freedom
fight I shall pray they not be a fallen hero
too.
Your Dad’s face was unhappy and
drawn, As over your casket his body was
draped. In his hands he was clutching “Old
Glory,” While praying his sorrow he couldn’t
escape.
You gave everything you had to
your country, To your convictions you were
forever true. Fallen hero today you, America
must honor, A soldier killed defending the red,
white, and blue.

page I dedicate to all of America’s “Fallen
Heroes.” God has some very brave new
angels.
