My Blood

 

Splendid soldier you
I\'m merely your descendant
barely fit to footstep follow
I\'m discipled , My kindred hero

Foreign soils desperately dank
Churchillian\'s major tactical outflank
Death by bulleted blight
Bastard German bight

Evil eradication in Holland\'s nether land
Liberation free , Guaranteed
Twas his life he gave
Home to a war hero\'s grave

Death knell to heroic soldier blue
And maybe I\'m a tad bitter \'tis true
My Blood lost his life to a gameplan
After all what\'s a medal without the man
