Out of the gloom and shadow,
On a melancholy day
A lonly soldier wandered
pursuing his lonly way.
Under the cover of darkness
He layed down to rest
And soon peacfully slumbered
As the moon began to crest.
As he layed there sleeping
He dreamed of a humble place
Of a little home in the valley
And his mothers lonly face.
As he layed there slumbering on
He woke to a thunderous boom
Shattering the surounding darkness
Changing the night to gloom.
Then came the realiztion
He was at a war to serve
To keep America safe from
All that he had heard.
Back to the battle he went
Still thinking of home
And his sweet mothers face
So as you lay down to sleep tonght
Please keep him in your prayers
Remember the lonly soldier
And the terror he now shares
May all our service men and women stay safe and come home soon........
Candels and Blessings to them all
