Poem -

a solder´s last stand r.i.p

i am standing here about to be free-

i am tied to a blood soaked pole -

in a few minutes they will fire -

and proceed to dig a hole 

#

i am not afraid and will be strong 

for i had a good life-

but my heart is crying out -

for my loveing wife 

#

whan you dress in this unifofm-

you fight for country and flag -

no point in being a coward -

who wants a body bag 

#

day and night i fired my gun -

my country i must defend -

they  cought me in a dirty ditch

and for me that was the end 

#

they tried to make me talk-

by torching me -

but i never gave in -

i am an irish man you see-

#

they sentenced me to death-

by the power of british rule -

shoot me with your bullets boys-

it´s you that are the fool´s

#

one minute to go they cover my eyes 

14 guns pointing at me -

in less than 60 seconds -

it´s then i will be free-

#

god bless you all my solder friends -

and to you molly my darling wife -

i hope to see you all real soon 

to god i go into thre next life

READY AME FIRE___------?
