Poetry Extra Credit- A Soldier

A Soldier
By: Julia Swicionis
Standing tall, representing all for whom they care; 
The people watch and adore.

Out shining others with their bravery and courage
Leading their army to war.

Letting the people know, 
That everything will be alright.

Deceiving everyone, even their families, 
That they were born to fight.

Inside they are a nervous wreck, 
But on their face this does not show.

Exquisite on the outside, they are standing tall in their uniforms, 
From the tops of their heads, to the tips of their toes.

Restoring the people with hope, 
That they can win this battle.

Standing there, the soldiers ready to fight, 
As they hear the drums rattle.

And so, the War has begun, 
And the men march off into the sun!
