I'm so thankful for all of the soldiers who risk their lives for our freedom. I'm also sad that so many young men lose their lives before they've even had a chance to really start living. I wrote this poem for a creative writing assignment and never got around to sending it out to any poetry publications. The original title of the poem was Let Them Sleep, but I decided to change it to Sleeping Soldiers.
