So many lives 

So many tries

To help win

Above the din



Desire to help

Support well

Their vision

With mission



To save world

From itself ...

If the only war

Is to save poor 



Souls from pain

So to win again

Life's task set

Not a safe bet



But choice made

To bless all trade

The rich or poor

All souls more



Willing once seen

Saints on screen

For reality pays

Pros - or strays



- Tristram
