Brothers At Arms: The Soldiers Creed
He stands among Men of strength
Defensive to the bitter end
Upon his face never a smile does he express
As in a trance he paces times ten
His eyes not leaving what be his intent
For those who watch and do not know
A gentler soul hath God not created
When upon him doth bestow the gentlest of smiles
And outstretched hands to calm the savage beast within
All humor for which he is known
Escapeth at the sight of those whom now garners her attention
Like a mighty warrior garbed in full dress
He will smite the enemy
That dares to upset the little darling
He vowed to protect from time her wails upon his ear fell
He hath known no peace of that he up-roaringly confesses
He will and always will be a Brother at Arms
His Sister now full grown
Yet in his eyes
He beholds the little hellion whose tears he once dried
The piggy back rides and her squeals of laughter
As he swung her 'round
He glares at suitors now near and crosses arms as big as tree limbs
This Woman Child he swears has caused him nothing but grief
And still he loves her dear and with his life, he would protect
"Brothers At Arms" A play on Military jargon with a slight change for all the hugs and kisses on the cheek she lavished upon the Brother's who spoiled her with love and attention. My Children were taught to look out for each other from an early age. My Son's watched out for their Sister who is the youngest without much prompting. It was just their way. My Daughter does the same for her Brother's, they were taught to look out for each other at an early age.
