We'd Done it For....Our

I'd made it, to the morning.....

Thick, grey smoke...

From the burning gorse,

filled.... the surrounding slopes.

While, endless..... waving, yellow grass.

Rolled... along, driven.... by the wind.

We shared smokes, and bullets!

We sat... filling, empty..... mags, and gathering, more grenades.

The sun, began to climb, and... with the light,we could our faces!

See... who, had made it.... through the night.

And we smiled,.....to each other.

Knowingly.

For, it wasn't over.

But today, could be..... a, good day.....to die!

Surrounded, by.....

Your

Mates.
