To the men and women of the US Coastguard

A job so pained and often hard

Rescuing poor and unfortunate souls

Who if not for them, the people would be swallowed whole?

Angry seas and raging skies

Churning foamy water that belies

The Ferocity of the waves is god wrath

A tidal wave in a whirlpool bath

Steady and fast, heads the chopper out to sea

Trying to cut through the forceful winds that be

Raging war against nature’s fury

Only the, US Coastguard can sit on this jury

To loves that are history and now are gone.

That leaves the man here all alone.

To face courage he must search deep inside.

And the emotions that cause pain, override.

Crying hard deep in his mind.

For the strength to ease the pain that’s what he must find
