Another sunshined cloudless day Azure blue skies, the mist it sways The endless columns of wooded groves As rank and file these soldiers strove.
So green the uniforms crisp and fresh So green the soldiers knowing less Than orders barked by Sgt Majors A troop so lost on thought I’ll wager.
The night descends and mutes the drab, The olive greens, the bloodied scabs As vision fades their cones take over Their eyes now dark, the men take cover
A single blast to sound attack They’ll sally forth and none fall back Their lives light up with angry bees The sight glass wipes out all it sees
The screams of dying men take hold The troop lay down where none grow old A hill to take and plant their flag With every corpse a body bag
Ex soldier, father, party girl and generally nice guy taking time out to do as he pleases! one day i will make it back to the UK, but i aint in a hurry!
