Nice and cozy

As I lay warm
Snuggling in my bed
Cozy free
Nice and toasty

I forget that you
Have endured sleepless nights
In the line of fire
Sometimes
Giving up your life

You who are someone's precious
Child
Growing up
Taking on the
Modern wilds

Making decisions
Dealing with
The fallout of doing your
Duty
Whether in this city
Or another country

All so that I may lay warm in
My bed
Nice and toasty

[Lyn Anderson]

A powerful sentiment, and although some may not agree, there is a difference between supporting war and supporting the men and women in uniform.
