POEM STARTER

Submitted by Miss Magnifique

Write an ode to something that others perceive as silly, but matters a lot to you.

An ode is a type of lyrical poem that typically addresses a particular subject in a positive and glorifying light.

Combat Boots

Not something to be so passionate

People say


Why do you love the thought of killing people

Others inquire


“Your the baby of the family you have a big heart and you wear it on your sleeve

I can’t see you getting behind and killing someone.” -my mom







Let’s the story straight


I chose to pick up a gun an fight

Not for the pleasure in death


I chose to support the men and women in camo and combat boots


I have a passion for people

Who stand shoulder to shoulder

One goal in mind, trained to fight

Trained to protect Trained to be loyal


I have a passion for strategic movements

One set plan.


I chose to serve


I chose to be a soldier


I chose to protect what’s mine as a soldier

To protect the country, and it’s people


I chose to be loyal

Though iv broken down


Iv chosen this path


A soldier will never quit


A soldier will always put the mission first


A soldier will never leave a fallen comrade


A soldier will never miss


A soldier always follows orders


A soldier is always loyal


A soldier is a person who’s brave enough to keep death at bay so the country can play


A soldier is a person who is a human but chooses to become a mindless beast when threatened



I chose a soldier’s life
