Some Gifts are Better

Ya know how they say the best gifts in life are free? Well, I totally agree! My bloggey friend Savage has been taking requests for poetry. As in you tell him a topic and he will write you a poem. I was totes sad when I headed over to his site the other day and asked him to write about deployments (my hubbs just recently left for Afghanistan-in case you missed it). Here is his awesomeness:

B-Dub wanted a poem about deployment since her hubby is off helping lay a smack down on the bad guys....

It Aint Easy

The time has come

He got the call

It aint easy

Not at all

He has to go

He don’t want to

He signed to serve

He’s got to do

He’s a strong man

With an easy smile

He’ll be gone

For a long while

Hugs and kisses

Have no fears

He brushes away

You’re saddened tears

It aint easy

Not at all

To serve your country

When you get the call

-Mark “The Savage” George

Thank you, my friend Savage, for taking time to write for me! To all my other people out there head over to see Savage! He is still taking requests, perhaps he will write one for you!

And now I have guilt because I can't remember where I found this picture. 

I would like to dedicate this one to my two brothers, who weren't man

enough to join the "real" military. Turns out I love them anywhozle.
