Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

Not what was expected,
our country continuing
a long drawn out war
in the lands so far away

Called up again,
his unit going
deployed once again
to the heat of the desert

Going, faithful,
servants of their country
following their orders
the call to go and stand

On point in the wilderness
hoping to serve us with courage
standing in the breach
between chaos and life

Doing their duty
faithful, with honor
praying that all of them
will come back safe from harm


February 3, 2010
on 3rd deployment of Adam Doucette,
member of Wesley United Methodist Church,
Concord, NH
