Final Fight

A precisely folded flag
a rifle salute fading away,
Then the lonely sound of taps
tells us a soldier has gone away.

His Earthly battle is over
we know he gave us his best,
Gone is a defender of freedom
we weep as he is laid to rest.

Our land became the greatest
because of soldiers like this one,
Who remained faithful to the end
who would not quit until the fight was won!
