We Brought That Storm

Just a poem I wrote due to my WW2 obsession.

We brought the storm, 73,000 strong. 

We brought the storm, we made defenses fall. 

We were the ones, we fought for the just. 

We came for them, we fought full of pride. 

We sacrificed, nearly 2,500 gone. 

We were called to duty without a choice

Yet we still stood tall. 

We stormed that beach, no, we brought that storm,

And now the world will know us all. 

The cannons blew

Bullets flew,

I stood there with my men.

I screamed to them “TO NORMANDY”

Yet thousands met the end. 

We swam through seas blood red soaked 

Drinking the dead's bleeding yoke

We cried our cries and shouted commands

The gunners fell with limp hands. 

We placed the bombs in spots to reign in war 

We broke down every locked door. 

Men with flames walked above

The trenches seems to protect us none

But we can even over come this 

We totted guns and tasted blood

We are the men of red white and blue

No one can take that from us. 

So now my children’s young ones come to ask

Did you storm that beach?

No, we brought that storm.
