Poetry Honoring our Troops
All Poems we written by me (Amy Hammonds)
Title: The Angel Creed
I am an Angel
I am a Guardian and a member of a team. I support the Elite Warriors of the
United States.
I will always provide the divine message of love, support and appreciation to
the Elite Warriors.
I will never let our Elite Warriors walk alone
I will never let any Elite Warrior feel unloved
I will never let a fallen Warrior be forgotten
I stand ready to support, love, and appreciate the United States’ Elite Warriors
through the good, bad and ugly.
I am a Messenger of support to the Elite Warriors who defend my freedoms and way
of life.
I am an ANGEL!
Title: Over There - Over Here
Over There our troops are Over There
First tour, second tour, third tour with strength and courage they go Over
There.
Making sacrifices Over There while we are Over Here living our lives.
When all they truly want is a small piece of home and to know they are loved,
supported and appreciated while they are Over There.
Over Here there is team of Angels who ensures that they receive a piece of home
and know that they are loved, supported and appreciated while they are Over
There.
Over Here we experience our own each individual difficulty. Over There some may
experience the joy of a thankful child. Over There some may experience things
that no one person can imagine. Over There some may pay the ultimate sacrifice.
When it comes time for them to return from Over There to Over Here they deserve
the respect and gratitude for the sacrifices that they endured.
Over There, Over Here our troops should always feel that they are loved,
supported and appreciated…….
Title: Answering the Call of Duty
They answer the call of duty...giving their all 24/7
365
Not always knowing what’s around the next corner
Sacrifices are made...
Small pieces of themselves, injuries, their lives
For WHAT?.....to protect our FREEDOMS!.
For WHO?....US...AMERICA!
Who are they?...our Military Might!
Not always receiving a THANK YOU or a pat on the back from the ones that they
make the sacrifices for...
Sacrificing pieces of themselves, their bodies and sometimes their lives.
When able they WILL once again answer the call of duty.
For what?...to protect our FREEDOMS!
For who?...US....AMERICA!
For they are our Military Might!
Title: For Our Armed Forces
Some are called Soldiers, some are called Marines,
some are called Sailors, some are called Airman and some are called Coasties….they
are our US ARMED FORCES
They are near and far. Deployed six months, a year maybe even longer
In warzones, war torn countries or on "assignment" they serve their country with
Strength, Courage and Honor.
Missing their friends and family with each passing day of a deployment.. leads
up to the excitement and anticipation of a count down of months, weeks, days,
hours and seconds of a much needed leave…
Anxiously awaiting for that day to come…the day that EVERY member of our Armed
Forces looks forward too to go home…Stateside that is… to see their friends and
family!!
Excited to see their friends..hold their loved ones tight. To our Armed Forces
the feeling of being back in the LAND of FREE and the HOME of BRAVE is worth all
of the sacrifices in the world
Leave or R & R should be a time for our Armed Forces to recharge, have some
fun…get a little lovin' some good food and much needed sleep…
NO member of our Armed Forces should ever feel that being on deployment is
better then being in the LAND of the FREE and the HOME of the BRAVE!
After all it IS the LAND of the FREE and the HOME of the BRAVE that our ARMED
FORCES are making sacrifices for…it should be the one place on earth that our
ARMED FORCES would rather BE!
Title: The Extraordinary
America has ordinary citizens that are extraordinary
They come in different shapes, sizes and colors
Some even walk on four legs
America's extraordinary citizens are unique in every way.
They have a unique sense of Pride, Courage Heart and strength to do what needs
to be done when called upon
Leaving the ones that they love behind
Towards the unknown they go...
To protect, defend or rescue....
Giving their all so all of US are safe!
