To Mary and her Superman Cole br br There he is, a little boy safe at home, br playing in the dirt or throwing the dog a bone. br Climbing the big tree as high as he can; or br tieing a towel over his shoulder playin Superman. br br Look at him now in the middle of the raid; br ducking down and throwing a grenade. br No more climbing trees as high as he can; br yet still having to be like Superman. br br He is an American Soldier trying to survive the best he can; br fighting emotions when he sees' the fall of his friend. br They have to believe their made of steel and bullet proof; br while watching for gun fire coming from a distant roof. br br Praying as each day passes the he will safely make it home, br struggling to get past the days of death, distruction and gloom.
