A soldier at the warfront
searching an enemy to confront
His mother praying for his wellbeing
without his hands to hold or him seeing
A wife awaiting his arrival
with a baby yet to come
Him at the warfront
fighting for survival
The television blaring out the news
about the countries in a fray
the public merrily celebrating
the Independence Day
Do we realise the costs they pay
with their own sweat and blood
Courage and pride their only might
Against bullets and bombs in the night
I write this poem as a tribute
for the true patriots of the land
I salute the flag of our nation as a symbol
of my obeisance to the sons of my Motherland
