My writing

Valhalla Tonight

Here I sit, rifle in hand

Killing the natives of a far off land.

The reason I am here?

A madman who spreads fear.

Bodies piled high as far as the eye can see,

Those caught as they tried to flee.

Enemy in sight

I pray my aim is true tonight.

The camp begins to stir

Time flies by as if ablur.

A hard thud to my chest,

I look down and see the hole in my vest.

My buddy looks at me with a tear,

I look at him and say “Do not fear”

Fight with all your might

For I will be waiting for you in VALHALLA tonight!

  1. I can’t even begin to imagine what you saw over there. You have served our country with pride and dignity. Be proud of all you have accomplished.
