Freedom At What Cost? Poem by Terence George Craddock

freedom risks trusting in recently met people
knowing hurt pain betrayal are possible rewards
freedom invests time care love gifted to people

freedom must risk life liberty hardships
freedom is like stepping off a sheer drop
because freedom on the edge risks the sudden fall...

freedom is prepared to give all sacrifice all
freedom is an Alamo moment where men
James Bowie, William Travis, Davy Crockett

among men of all nations are men
who will fight to be free die to be free
invasions create men who die for liberty...
