SWETA LEENA PANDA - A SOLDIER

A soldier is the true & brave son of our nation
Who left his old beloved father and mother
Who left behind his sisters and brothers
Leaving his beloved children and wife
To fight for those whose freedom you granted
He crosses the sea, to fight the foe man
A soldier serves his country first and his life is left behind
He never passes a cry for help
Though at times he shook with fear
And sometimes he pray to God to forgive him
As he has wept unmanly tears
He never think about his life
He fight for his brothers & sisters safety
When fight over, he either come back home
Or become a memorable person in everyone's mind
Many heart cries for this holy sprite
Specially his old mother & father
Who are eagerly waiting to see their beloved son
They never believe as their son died
They take it as he is sick
His wife & children become helpless
The tears falling from my eyes
Whenever I listen a life history of a soldier's life
With a hand upon my heart, I feel the pride and respect
As our flag waves above you, in her glory and grace.
Freedom was the gift that he gives us
Pain and death was the price that he ultimately paid.
Every day, I pray for these soldiers
Who had fought to defend our nation?
