The Father in the Soldier

A soldier in uniform who knows no fear

A demeanor that wants the enemy to steer clear

An expression that makes the foes think twice

A fold on the forehead as if thinking about his next move

A doting father that just got off work

A husband that stands awaiting his return

An expression of pride as he sees his young

A wrinkle on his forehead like the creases of time gone by

I see this picture and I see two

A fearless soldier and a doting father too

I see him standing after a long day's work

His clothes wrinkled and his boots covered in dirt
