On barren land on western field
Where only sadness war can yield
On battle sites where none had grown

This poem was a very nice poem. My ancestors traveled the Trail of Tears.
How blue are the eyes of my darling
And warm are her lips ruby red.
How white are her arms of enchantment
That beckon me into her bed.

Listen to the distant drums.
Listen to the bugles calls.

Just to welcome you back home,
You serve your country admirably
As so far and wide you roam.
