What A Soldier Does : Inspirational Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


 

The soldier questioned the war .

When and who is it all for .  

Who is right and who is wrong .

Why can't we  just get along .

What's different about me .

Where ever can we agree .

What's different about them . 

All war's must come to an end .  

 

The soldier questioned his faith .

God where are you in this place .

Why don't you stop all the hate .

Who of us here can relate .

Where can your justice be found  .

When will real healing come down .

What are you saying today .

Can you hear Lord as we pray .

 

 

The soldier stood there alone .

As if he had been disowned . 

There was no answer for him .

Just deadly silent and grim .

Then within the noise of war   

The soldier questioned no more . 

He accepted who he was .

And did what a soldier does .
