Poem Thingy · 5:02am Nov 1st, 2015
As some of you may know, or may not know - I am in the Navy, or more specifically, the Sub Force. And, on top of that - I just got back from a deployment. And on said deployment, I wrote a little poem.
Down periscope,
Down we go.
Sitting deep,
Sitting silently,
Patiently waiting.
Never heard,
Never broken.
The dark beneath
Waits.
To the deep,
To the shallows.
Some return,
Some fortunate.
Forever for others,
The eternal patrol
Of the seas,
Far,
And wide.
To Submariners
Remembered,
Forgotten,
To those
Forever patrolling
Forever waiting,
We live on
Never heard,
Never broken.
Just a thingy.
Hey, I liked it. Glad to see you pop back up here! How's the service going?
3514141 Been busy as all hell, and haven't had much time to do as much as I used to, so I spend my free time sleeping or eating for the most part. How are things for you?
3514547 pretty decent, just slogging through school. Where are you stationed right now? (or is that classified?)
3514563 Nah, I'm out in NH right now.
3514588 Sweat, how much more time do you have on your tour? unless tours are army specific. I'm not a military man.
3514733 I think you mean how much time left in? 3 years right now.
3514759 Is five years the minimum?
