A respect for the family of the soldiers who has given the countey a greatest gift,so, Lets express the thanks giving note for the soldiers

Rough hands, etched with stories untold,

Eyes that hold battles, young and old.

Boots that march on dusty ground,

Echoes of duty, whispers around.

-

Homesick dreams in starlit skies,

Loved ones' faces, behind their eyes.

Letters clutched, a fragile thread,

To laughter lost, and words unsaid.

-

Fear a comrade, grim and cold,

Yet courage burns, a heart of gold.

For duty's call, a whispered vow,

To shield the light, even now.

-

Sunrise paints the battlefield red,

Hope's fragile ember, barely fed.

But in the trenches, hands that clasp,

Brotherhood forged, in death's tight grasp.

-

So raise a glass, let tears descend,

For heroes fallen, without end.

May peace one day, rewrite their song,

And silence cannons, right the wrong.

-

Remember them, in sunlit days,

The silent heroes, lost in haze.

For in their sacrifice, we stand,

Free to dream, in this promised land.
