Bio:

Members of my family have covered every war since the Spanish American War. I'm the daughter of a WWII Marine, now deceased. ~The Final Inspection~ The Marine stood and faced God, Which must always come to pass. He hoped his shoes were shining, Just as brightly as his brass.~ "Step forward now, Marine, How shall I deal with you? Have you always turned the other cheek? To My Church have you been true?"~ The soldier squared his shoulders and said, "No, Lord, I guess I ain't. Because those of us who carry guns, Can't always be a saint.~ I've had to work most Sundays, And at times my talk was tough. And sometimes I've been violent, Because the world is awfully rough.~ But, I never took a penny, That wasn't mine to keep... Though I worked a lot of overtime, When the bills got just too steep.~ And I never passed a cry for help, Though at times I shook with fear. And sometimes, God, forgive me, I've wept unmanly tears.~ I know I don't deserve a place, Among the people here. They never wanted me around, Except to calm their fears.~ If you've a place for me here, Lord, It needn't be so grand. I never expected or had too much, But if you don't, I'll understand.~ There was a silence all around the throne, Where the saints had often trod. As the Marine waited quietly, For the judgment of his God.~ "Step forward now, you Marine, You've borne your burdens well. Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets, You've done your time in Hell." ~Author Unknown~
