A Soldier or a Vet
only a transition from one to the other
A person trained to kill
to protect their land and their brother
Veterans
Soldiers that have fought or served their time
They were there
to stop the enemy on a dime
In the past
Soldiers came back from a foreign fight
Protesters were there
screaming bad things at them with all their might
Not all Vets
feel the same
After returning home
only to find our Government to blame
Being shipped off to fight
seeing things they will never forget
Making them decide to leave the military
turning them into a Vet
Every Soldier understands the military
having their very own point of view
Not every Soldier will like it
and try to get out, if its the last thing they do
Today, when our Soldiers come home
we welcome with hugs and cheers
Its about time things have changed
after so many years
Every time you see a Soldier or Vet
give them thanks and shake their hand
Show them you are sincere
by giving them a loving smile that is so grand
Thanks you American Veterans

| Your words are a truthful tribute and an honest sentiment to those brave souls who keep us free. More salutes should be given to them, and we should honor all they have done. Great write. Thank you for sharing,P |
