Thank You to our soldiers in Iraq

This is in honor of America's troops coming home from Iraq

BOOM! Go the bombs

As the fires roar

And the bullets blast

Tanks lumber by

Their bulk intimidating,

But still they fight

Choppers soar overhead

Passengers survey the damage

Tears fall down their cheeks

before they join the battle

The steady rhythm of feet

Echoing throughout the land

As men march to their post

Protecting those in need of protection

The brave armies fight

Some men fall

But still they prevail

The fallen are honored

As their brothers and comrades

Fight in their name

The conflict lasts years

Heartbreak and hope everywhere

But finally, finally, the troops are coming home

The families are about to be reunited

And peace restored!

Thank you to all our troops who fought in Iraq!

Our hearts are with you.

We’re all so glad you’re coming home!
