In peace, a civilian,
Wearing clothes as plane as mine,
A normal job and a normal life.
But when your country calls, from within or from afar,
You change into the tan and green of
The Army National Guard.
And just like that, you are a soldier going of to war.
Stepping forward in time of need, setting aside your fears.
Sacrificing all you have,
For death, you volunteer.
Understanding the oath pledged the day you signed your name,
Working hard everyday to keep our country safe.
Avowing to protect and serve no mater what it takes.
Gladly laying down your life for those you’ve never met.
You do it every day and never shown regret.
One day you’re fighting here at home, the next your in Kuwait.
Marching past the gates of hell, as if you owned the place,
When deep inside you fought for courage and prayed to God for grace.
I see you standing tall, pride running through your veins
I catch a glimpse of what we mean to you,
Why you go out there every day.

I think you should keep it simple. Something like "Soldier" would work. Or maybe "The Brave." Good luck!

I'm having a hard time thinking of anything that would do your beautiful poem any justice. I hope you got an A+. Here's a few suggestions, The Warrior, True Courage, The Protector. Men Of Honor. Good Luck!!!!

The Ultimate Choice

a million. clean pores and skin is solid, long hair, skill to place a sentence jointly without tension, and a few point of wellness is favorite. 2. Tight clothing while they don't have the physique for it, stupidity, and short hair (as in bald or buzzed purely my opinion). 3. First eyes then the remarkable curve on parting.
