dVersePoets Pub – Memorial Day Prompt –
hosted by Victoria C Slotto
*
victoria has a wonderful poem from walt whitman, plus reminds us of the variety of poets that have written work honoring those who fight to preserve their homes and families :
“William Shakespeare, Wilfred Owens, Robinson Jeffers, Walt Whitman, Carl Sandburg, Matthew Arnold, Rudyard Kipling, Anne Sexton, William Blake and Randall Jarrell.”
and ends with this well said line :
“Go out and enjoy the day, whether you live in a country that celebrates Memorial Day or not.”
my poem is for the relationship between the soldier, any one of us, and the society we live within….

Soldiers Come in All Sizes
when
not that long ago
hordes rode the ridge
flashing steel
and death
the child
as much as the woman
with the man
scurried to defend
life
soldiers are defenders
of a way of life
and life
itself
so
to preserve the soldier
willing to give the only thing
we know for sure
our breath
our
way of life
itself
must defend the values of our soldiers
