A Soldier’s Christmas - by Michael Marks
December 7th, 2006 EmmaPeel
On this, the 65th anniversary of Pearl Harbor, let’s pause a moment for this poem, which has been circulating in email and blogs for a couple years now. As long as we’re at war, this is only going to be passed along more and more, and might even become a new Christmas classic.
Most versions that are making the rounds on the Internet don’t include the author’s name - but it really deserves to be there. The poem is by Michael Marks. The closest thing I could find to an “official” webpage for him is at the International War Veterans’ Poetry Archives.
