A Captain

Giving himself for their lives,
the crew still by his side.
Fighting to save him,
striving to aid him.
The country watches still,
for an ending, a rescue.
FBI in a frantic race,
to meet the Captain face to face.
Talking, promises made,
kept by us, yet not by them.
A heroic jump into the sea,
caught again, captor once more.
Watch the news, they all agree,
getting the Captain is our goal.
As we watch the saga unfold,
think of his family, truly bold.
