Christmas In The Army : Seasonal Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


 I won’t be home for Christmas the army has me over here ,  
So carve up the Christmas turkey and open another beer .

Remember me and make a toast , good health in the year to come  .
Then in a moments silence say a prayer for everyone .

Soon we’ll see you all again and join in with every sound .
Amid the laughter there at Christmas , maybe next time around .

Christmas in the army is like another family here .
 We look after one another and create some Christmas cheer  .

We are enjoying Christmas in the army with all our hearts.
and hope and pray that peace will come after Christmas time departs .
