A soldier gives thanks.

Christian Soldier

by Lance S. Loria

The soldier walked on point.
Aware of the dangers,
Smiling to himself,
He felt at ease.
Jesus walked at his side.

Mission completed,
Return to base camp.

Reaching the gate,
They walked single file.
Some bowed in silent prayer,
Thankful to be back.

Until next time.
