Wounded Warrior

Wounded Warrior
Under angel’s watchful eyes
Plans for him revealed
Prayers for mercy and goodness
For this man’s new objective

Wounded Warrior
Under his wife’s watchful eye
Wants to understand
The life that stands before her
With this broken- partial man

Wounded Warrior
Under his friends’ watchful eyes
Picks up the pieces
When his wife decides to leave
Buck up, be strong, you’ll get through

Wounded Warrior
Under Mother’s watchful eye
Braced for the battle
She’ll stand beside him with pride
For the rest of his long life

Wounded Warrior
Under nurses’ watchful eyes
Each step a battle
They challenge and support him
Progress slowly moves forward

Wounded Warrior
Under doctor’s watchful eyes
Meets the new patients
Encouraging them to try
Up and down the ward he strides

Wounded Warrior
Under his kid’s watchful eyes
Ages with honor
Never questioning his fate
Hears the angels once again

Wounded Warrior
Complete and whole once again
Stands at heaven’s gate
His mission’s been accomplished
His perseverance prevailed
