    It's Memorial Day.
    I wrote this poem for the occasion.


    Our Soldiers' Honor
    Written by: TJgamer


    All of our soldiers,
    Strong, diligent, and brave,
    Fought a good fight,
    So our lives they could save.

    They wanted freedom;
    They wanted to make peace;
    They did the right thing,
    To have the great war cease.

    Some have lived,
    Yet many have died,
    But they stood their ground,
    And did not run and hide.

    Such courage and might,
    As great as a knight's valor,
    I stand here and salute,
    For it is a great honor.



    If you could see the whole life of an American solder, you'd think that he's one of the toughest and fearless men ever.
    Think about that.

    This is a great one, TJ! I fully agree with you that soldiers should be respected in society.

    There are a few errors with punctuation, such as the comma in the last line of the first stanza, which makes it a little too choppy, and I think it would sound better without it. Also, in the second stanza, those commas should probably be semicolons, as there're full sentences after each.

    Other than that though, I love the poem itself, great job!
