Our Heroes

Gentle Breeze I have slipped the surly bonds of earth Looking around the skies of silvered wings. And if you feel a gentle breeze or wind upon your face Remember it's only me with a loving and soft embrace. I have just gone to my heavenly home I want you to know That when your time comes to cross over here I'll be there to take your hand. Copyright © Maureen090

Oh Lord, I Think You Know.........
The hardest thing in life to bear
Is to lose the ones you love
To never see there face again
Or give them that big hug

To never hold them in your arms
To never see them grow
Oh Lord, if we could have one wish
I think by now, you know

That we would wish to have them back
To live on earth with us
So that we could share with them
Our unconditional love

But now that you have got them
In heaven up above
Hold them closely to your heart
And shower them with love


God Bless Love Anne xx

We thank each one of you
For your Courage and Bravery
The whole Country is proud of you
Shine your bright Stars
So that we all see
Your looking over your Family

THE FINAL INSPECTION
The soldier stood and faced God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining,
Just as brightly as his brass.

'Step forward now, you soldier,
How shall I deal with you ?
Have you always turned the other cheek ?
To My Church have you been true?'

The soldier squared his shoulders and said,
'No, Lord, I guess I ain't.
Because those of us who carry guns,
Can't always be a saint.

I've had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was tough.
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.

But, I never took a penny,
That wasn't mine to keep...
Though I worked a lot of overtime,
When the bills got just too steep.

And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear..
And sometimes, God, forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.

I know I don't deserve a place,
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around,
Except to calm their fears.

If you've a place for me here, Lord,
It needn't be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand.

There was a silence all around the throne,
Where the saints had often trod.
As the soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.

'Step forward now, you soldier,
You've borne your burdens well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell.'
