Angels of Red White and Blue

By Steven Jester

Brave those who
Become the Angels of Red White and Blue
They protect the country
On the whims and desires of the few
Those

Who work in the field
Amongst the Angels of Red White and Blue
Marvel at what they go through
That they suffer unlike the few
That

Sit in comfort of home
Unlike the Angels of Red White and Blue
Commanding, sacrificing
Instead of fighting the problems of home
Even

If the country is under a threat
Worthy of the Angels of Red White and Blue
There should be a country
For them to return to
Soldiers
