My Airman


My Airman
 (By: Martha Pruett)


No words can describe
How proud I am of you
Putting everything you have
Into everything you do

Rising early in the morning
Staying up late at night
Spending every free moment
Becoming a unified flight

Classes, marching, saluting too
Rank recognition and learning to shoot
Chain of command, cleaning your gun
Learning to sing in the middle of a run

Seven short weeks left
And then I will see
An Airman in uniform
Smiling down at me

I’ll watch you run in front of me
An Airman’s coin you will receive
Parade, salute and an oath you will say
An Airman you’ll be at the end of the day

No words can describe
How proud I am of you
I hope you realize
How much I LOVE YOU!!!



This is a poem I wrote for Zac about a week or so after he left for Basic.  I sent it to him in a letter, hoping it would be an encouragement to him.
