Christmas has been put on delay
for us it's not a day of cheer.
Having Christmas here is not the same
when our families aren't near.
Returning to our homes and loved ones
would have meant everything.
Instead our tour has been extended
we won't return home till spring.
Sorrow now engulfs me at this moment
there's a feeling of despair.
Tears fall down upon this foreign land
as I kneel in silent prayer.
Make this world a better place God;
not just for me, for everyone.
And give me strength to carry on
there's so much to be done.
Sorry we can't celebrate with mirth
on this holy night of Jesus birth.
Dear God, I wish we could all could live
together in peace and harmony on earth
And that there was an end to all war,
that we would find a way.
Your power is divine; let your love shine,
on us all this Christmas day~

I always give 100% for our soldiers, without them we wouldn't live in the land of the free, in the UK they don't get half the respect they deserve. A beautiful Acrostic that brings the dark reality we are all facing especially in this current climate of the state of our world. 🌹 🌹
