A Trainer's Prayer
by: John
P. Vazquez
Dear Lord, we pray, no more good byes
to those we train to stay alive
No long slow ride with downcast
eyes
or "Taps" to make a loved one cry
Enlighten those You chose to teach
to save the few not yet arrived
Let
not the words to us proclaim
that one of ours did not survive
The walls are long with many names
their sacrifice
for us to share
Let all be told at Heaven's gate
We did our best to keep them bare
