He Is A Marine
When America was nothing but a Patriot's dream,
They called for the best, for America's cream. In the heat of battle, they forged the Corps, That protects our homes, and guards our shores. Though years have passed, and our country's grown They are still the best, America's own. With courage and strength, in battles far and wide, They fought with courage, and served with pride. Now we send a Marine, to rest by their side He lived and guarded , the American dream, And he gave his all, He is: A Marine. The rifle's echoes, are fading away Taps has sounded, the end of his day, The flag is folded, and passed to his wife, We mourn his passing, and remember his life. One of the few, one of America's best, One of the proud, he stood up to the test. He's never forgotten, he's never alone, The Corps will always, care for its' own. He stood so strong, on him we could lean, And he gave his all, He is: A Marine. Al Gamel 1997 Sempers, Roger
