The British Soldier

                    The British Soldier

     The British soldier’s life of firm resolve

Is one that guarantees no moment free

From care. When troubles loom, se must evolve

A fitting system through which to resolve

The complex crux of each contingency

That threatens safety. Se must always have

     Initiative to implement hez rôle.

A British soldier must be strong and brave,

Although hez courage may lead to the grave

Before due time, to save another soul

Of any gender, colour, race or creed.

     Despite these cares, se always has a smile

     To cheer those in distress. And all the while

Se stands prepared to help someone in need.
