This is terrific. You do such a wonderful job of sharing the feature and worry that someone must feel waiting to hear from a soldier in harms way. I thought the part about even if he is scarred you want him back. Very touching and beautiful.

So many wives are sitting at home during the holidays this year feeling the feelings you have described in your poem. It is sad that we have to have our loved ones gone at all but necessary for the safety of those at home in our country. Thanks for sharing this post.

A solemn prayer prayed by many. I hope that prayer is fully and happily answered for them all. Thank God my son made it home safely after three tours to Iraq. Bless you!

Such a beautiful heart-felt poem, revealing deep love and great yearning for the well-being of her loved one. The imagery is powerful - they can both look upon "their" star together. Well done. Good wishes for the contest.

This is certainly the prayer of everyone who has a soldier deployed in a faraway place. Please let them serve safely and come home. But no matter what, let them come home to those who love them.

I like that. I have never experienced having a loved one off to war and waiting for them to come home. You have expressed it well, putting them in God's hands and willing to accept whatever happens.
