Poem

The Soldiers Tomb

This is where the big wind blows.
Where our dead lie, in shadows.
Those who fought for freedom ring,
are buried here and here we sing,
Arlington cemetary, tomb of the unknowns.
The tomb of the soldier's glows,
with specters of war it flows.
They fought to set us free,
so we could have liberty.
The bombs exploding holes,

in the hearts of those at home.
Warriors for democracy.
Now they're dead. Oh say
can you see in the hallows,
of life, where the big wind blows.
