  1. ‘Taps’

    In gentle fields of green and white
    Paying homage to those who reside with God
    Soldiers of the past and present who fought the good fight
    Now interned to the earthly sod
    With the sound of Taps filling the air
    Within the echo of the winds of time
    The mourners weep and children stare
    Seeking answers to their questions to find
    Why must it be that we loose so many that we love?
    From the Demon’s treacherous acts of war
    This reaching thought cut by the sound of Taps
    As above them the American Eagle soars
    Our Nation’s flag lowered to half staff
    With their colors of red,white,and blue
    Red representing the blood our soldiers shed
    Just as the son of God shed for all of you
