Letter To A Solidier Poem by princess irene Namajja

I stand where we once stood on those lucky dusking nights
Looking for the silhouette of you with hope you'll soon return from the far away land of combat
I hear the echo of your voice resounding through gun shots and bomb blasts
To carry me the words you spoke in pledge to battle a world to keep our child and love safe
And emptiness grips me where your embrace once filled
But the heart is warm with promise that you are fighting for state calm and right
The only reason our child and love strays on the sacrificial altars of war;
Now I write, with spirit to your valor and supremacy
To call you home in decorum, to love and family; to safety
Every time we sit without you under this starry sky
I almost see you straying across frontlines in shear devotion to state calm and right
And with love I am calling you home; I am calling you to safety
Calling you to fight for our child and our love as you have for the State
We love you.
