Our True Patriots

To all our true patriots
Whose names are carved
On the Vietnam Memorial wall
And to all of those of whom were called
With justification and gratitude
I dedicate this poem to you
Yes you our true patriots
On land sea and air
Yes you our soldiers in arms
To you we declare
Our lives and our country
In which we all do share
The freedom of choice
That of which was made to care
For the equal rights on liberty
That rings well in our ears
For the colors of Old Glory
That has unfurled throughout
the years
Even in a heavenly place
The stars and stripes to shine
For the choice of freedom and
Wellbeing of all mankind
Yes you our true patriots
God has you in mind so there
is no reason to bow down
In shame for you
Are an American soldier
And to you we do proclaim
