The Bravest of the Brave

THIS POEM IS NOT PRESENTED AS I INTENDED (ie. DOUBLE SPACED).

THIS HAS BEEN DONE BY PERSONS BEYOND MY CONTROL

THUS DIMINISHING THE READING EXPERIENCE.

🙈

The bravest of the brave

Will rise to meet the foe

And fear not who they well may be

As marching on they go.

They stand before the fierce

And find the faith to put

Their trust in God, yet still they take

A bullet in the foot.

The bravest of the brave

Will rise and soldier on

And have no fear of danger

Till all their wars are gone.

They fight their bloody battle

Oblivious to harm,

They trust in God, yet still they take

A bullet in the arm.

The bravest of the brave

Will fear not where they tread

But in the end they're sure to take

A bullet in the head.

With all our brave men slaughtered,

Be that as it may,

The bravest of the very brave

Must rise to face the day.
