Silent Warriors Poem by C.R. Ebowski

Silent Warriors



My eyes swell shut
From the tears
Streaming
Flooding
Down my face

A day when
Our freedom is
Celebrated
Recognized
Across the nation

I will sit in silence
Morning the unknown
Departed
Misplaced
In our world

Who has been
Unknown to thee
Unappreciated
Thankless
Freeing us

But there are those
Who live in the shadows
Shielding
Protecting
Our survival

Never to be awarded
Deserved metals
Indebted
Honored
Through our lives

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Ted Sheridan 09 July 2007

Too many people have answered the call of duty only to be forgotten by the ones who live the dream
