Thru your poems your thoughts travel to my heart;
I feel your pain when you and your loved one are miles apart.
you’re a military wife of a man whom fights for the red white and blue;
on a daily basis you keep hope,you manage to get thru......

you show us your strong side;
it is alright to show us your real side.
the compassionate ,the woman in you;
that is only shown to a few......

it is alright to cry;
we will help comfort and keep your eyes dry.
a comforting ear you can seek;
this doesn't mean you are weak.....

I wrote a poem to another military wife;
I admire you too for your part in your mans life.
I promised her that I'd get down on my knees;
and along with others and pray for world peace......

so you and all other military wifes;
can walk along the side of your husbands and live a normal carefree life.
many things we often take for granted including the air that we breath;
one thing I learned,the price for freedom is never really free.......

others put their life on the line;
so freedom can be yours and mine.
they fight for this right every day;
sometimes their life is the wager they pay.....

I write you this poem not to cause a tear;
but to let you know that we are here.
God will wrap his arms around your man;
and provide the protective shield upon him and all that he can......

Gods desire....;
is to seize the gun-fire.
make the country strong;
return your man to your arms where he belongs......

he wants the entire world to see ;
that you are the woman that stands behind what may be.
you are the one, whom prays all hours of the day;
making sure all military personnel are okay......

you count your blessings for what they are;
you shine thru for them like a star.
we are nearing that long awaited day;
to set yourself free , hold him in your embrace......
