mary catherine Poems

I have thought of the life
of a Military wife
Her struggles, her sorrows
of everyday life
...

not the ones who wear the green
but the ones unnoticed behind the scenes
the ones who endure the endless nights
the secret affairs without the fights
...

I've thought about this country
This fighting, the war
Things that never really
Concerned me before
...

you left today
back to iraq
you took my heart
in that damn pack
...

i'm laying in bed now
its lonely and cold
trying to sleep
it's endless and old
...

Twas the night before xmas
And all through the house
Not a child was stirring
Not even our mouse
...

i've helped many a freind thru out the years
hug her tight and dry her tears
keep her faithful to her man in green
remind her she is a part of his team
...

I've sat here most of the day
Wondering what to you i'll say
To ease your pain and comfort you
Because i know your not home
...

Mom sits alone
Night after night
Worrying about me
In the dim of the light
...

I chose to fight,
for my country
my homeland
But this political garb
...

I'm tired I'm weary
I'm in anouthers land
I fight for my country
I'm here for the stand
...

I left my home so long ago
It's walls and windows i no longer know
But the love i left inside that place
Fill's my heart, my soul, every empty space
...

No one will come between you and me
Your the sugar that added to my sweet tea
Your the lights hung gently, on my front door
Your the yellow ribbon, stretched across the porch
...

He's in the Army Strong and True
He's proud to wear the Red White and Blue
I stand behind him
A silent fight
...

What did i do
That you gave to me
A love that i can never see
That i'm still here lonely and sad
...

Here i sit
All night alone
Thinking of you
Wishing you we're home
...

I wrote this poem
For my Mom and Dad
It's been along time
Since i held their hands
...

We chose to come here, We chose to fall
For what? These people dont hear our call
To save a few souls, To add to God's book
These people if they'd only look
...

The silence at night
Is the hardest to bare
Knowing when i roll over
You won't be there
...

i'm a military girlfreind
tried and true
i don't know alot about
this red white and blue
...

The Best Poem Of mary catherine

Being In Love With A Military Man

I have thought of the life
of a Military wife
Her struggles, her sorrows
of everyday life
Living without
the man of her dreams
While he is so far
Away it seems
They may never touch
Each other again
Exchange a kind word
Have supper with freinds
They may only have
The time that once was
It is gone, it has been
Its no more, it once was
The love she holds
In her heart for him
Will never diminish
Will never grow dim
For she fell in love
With a military man
He's her life, her heart,
Her dying end.

Dedicated to: SFC Shanks 'Come home Safely'

i'm lucky enough to be a freind of hers, although anyone who meets her is....she lights up a room like sunshine, and would never do anything without considering consequences for all parties involved. her door stands open to any lost soul in need of a hand. just ask the 7 baby possums she just introduced back into the wild. i've seen wild birds rest in her hand, and swear that if you touch her she can change your life forever. against all odds, she raised 3 sons alone, with no child support, and refused to be on welfare. i watched her be a pillar of strength taking care of her parents at home for three years only to hold them in her arms and watch them pass a day and a half apart and still caring for three small children. she works harder than any man i've ever known. and i've seen her do without so a stranger doesnt have to...i feel priveledged that God steered her into my path and she remains a part of my life today... i've just been told of this website and found this part of her that i didnt know about, once again i am amazed at who at what she is...and can tell you what she writes here comes from a depth in her heart that only a few of us will ever imagine..if your ever lucky enough to meet her, make sure you touch her hand, your life will never be the same...... love you girl, thanks for changing our lives.....donna and the girls hate it for you girl...you forgot to shut down the website after your last poem submission and we saw it...after we all had a few good laughs and few good cries reading all your poems, which we would have liked to have known about. we thought people should know the person they we're reading about... if there are such things as fallen angels sent here to help us.....we are proud to say we know one....and you are girl....we love you....
