Freedom Poem by Richard McClellan

Freedom

Rating: 5.0


Freedom,
defined by force,
to die for the cause,
is what the soldier supports,

Freedom,
defined by society,
to a grander cause,
the soldier come upon,

Freedom,
defined by religion,
Jesus died in its name,
put on the cross was he,

Freedom,
one the cross,
the other on the battlefield!
did they die in vain?

Freedom,
defined by song,
Jesus n' the soldier did sing,
your soul, one died for, the latter let freedom ring!

I don't think that a soldier dies in vain. If my life has saved someone else to have a life that is longer than it would have been without interfering. Even if their life is only extended by minutes. Still not in vain to get someone in life further than they were.
