Join me this day
As we pray
For those people who play
With their lives everyday
For those of us who complain and say
"The world is not peaceful today!"

The cursed few who complain and murmur
They sit at home and grow obese
And use others like a toy
The others, who risk their lives to try to install peace

The author's comments:
This poem is dedicated to all Veterans and soldiers still fighting. Its not easy and its even harder to be bossed around by people who only complain and don't have courage like you.
