Semper Fi Christmas
By John A. Wilson
I
Was
There
When we
Fought at
Beleau Woods
I helped take
The deadly peak
Of Suribachi Hill
I held you close to
Try and keep you warm
At the Chosin Reservoir
I covered your back in the
Jungles and rice paddies as
You did your very best in Nam
I flew high cover for you above
The blazing oilfields of the gulf
Wherever you may have been, Marine
Beside you I have stood as companion
And protector, your Lord, Savior and God.
And I will
Forevermore
