When i saw this picture on Facebook, i sank, immediately, into the idea of how soldiers balance duty and family especially when their attention is needed on both fronts. It is a very complicated one if you ask me.
Anyways, it will be rude of me not to say hello to you. Hello! How are you doing today? It has been raining down here in Gusau, Nigeria and everywhere is quite cold. Okay, let’s go straight into the matter of the day because i am pretty sure that if i continue, i may end up telling you a story.

Duty of family
To fight for loved ones
To bring up the next generation
County, country and nation
Hoping to carry on the family line
Hoping everything is fine
To say we are parents and this family is mine
POEM BY KARL WOMACK
Bombs drop
Children cry
Soldiers in
A fire fight
Don’t hate
Us we are
Here to
Help
We’re not
The bad guys
No don’t think
That
Here let’s me
Get you somewhere
Safe
I’ll never forget
You little one
