Quintin S...

Gifted

A military child, that's who I am

My life is not like others, it's a different plan

Moving from place to place, it's what we do

From one duty station to another, it's always something new

We are a part of a community, tight-knit and strong

Growing up around men and women in uniform, it's where we belong

Watching them go to war, it's never easy to bear

But we support them with pride, knowing they're out there

We learn to be resilient, adaptable and brave

Seeing our parents sacrifice, we're taught how to behave

We know the cost of freedom and its worth

Proudly standing beside them, we belong to this earth

The memories we make are countless, the memories that shine

From the base housing, the commissary, the school we defined

We take with us the lessons, the bonds, the love

Being a military child, a gift from above.
