That Day
Softly the sun comes up shades
Blue and gold shine down upon the field
People can be seen getting out of cars
Clouds roll by letting sunshine fall upon the sea of stones
As the lone black car appears at the top of the hill
They all stop and turn and watch it...
As it draws closer the HonorGuard prepare themselves for thier duty
The door is open and there .. in a metal box lays a man that loved.
He loved His country even more so He loved her.... His babygirl
Carefuly He is taken to His final resting place..
The chaplin say's a few words last glances are given
She slowly walks to his side one last time..looking down
Tears flow as if like a river her ckeeks flushed and red
He hear's someone crying but yet He can not see who it is
She leans over and ever so gently gives Him a finale kiss goodbye
His eyes flash open faster then lighting can stike the earth...
but sadly she can not see this
He tries to tell her not to cry that things will be fine
He longs to touch her soft body once more,to hold her,to kiss her
He tries so hard to touch her but His hand is lifeless in that coffin
but in His mind He gently cups her cheek and whispers...
It's alright babygirl
I will be waiting for you.. It's time that this soldier rest's
With that He fades away...with only His memory to stay with her
If ever she called upon Him He would be there and protect her once again
As He did before
I do not normaly allow anyone to see my works
only One person has ever seen them
