Morning, fellow poet!

Let me share this prayer I wrote:

A prayer for our troops

Remember them, O Lord,
Someone's son or daughter,
Husband or wife,
Mother or father,
serving their country.

O Lord, their service is often hard,
sometimes frightening,
and some will give their all.
Be with each one of them,
and hold them in the palm of your hand.

Watch over their families,
and may they be united once again.

Thank you, Lord, for giving us young people
willing to answer their country's need,
willing to serve. May their actions not go unrewarded.
Amen.

Beautiful prayer for our troops.


An all volunteer military
willing to answer their
nation's call

God's speed to one and all.
