Cav Boys

by Kenneth Lee Gillespie

When twilight comes and fireflys fly
Those lightning bugs across the sky,
Dive in and out, formations high.
They flicker on their running lights
To twinkle in the monsoon song.
The children run through fury's bright
Burning amidst the village site.
The Cav Boys have come out to play
And in the village doth they slay.
When twilight comes the choppers fly
With miniguns and troops arrayed,
To strike out fast across the sky,
Dive in and out, formations high.
