A poem by, Donna M. Monnig

SG-1:

Four People, One Destiny

One was a colonel who’d given up on life,

One was an archaeologist who’d lost his wife.

One was a woman, brilliant but trying to find her place,

One was an alien trying to find redemption’s grace.

~~~~

They banded together all but strangers to start,

But it didn’t take long until nothing could tear them apart.

They’d fight together through hell and then back,

More than once they saved Earth from an attack.

~~~~

They’d go to any length to do what was right,

No enemy was ever too big for them to fight.

Nothing and no one could break them apart,

They were not only a team but a family at heart.

~~~~

The colonel found purpose for his life at last,

The archaeologist let his wife go an stopped living in the past.

The woman found her place appreciated by her team,

The alien found freedom for his people as was his dream.

~~~~

No one imagined that they could do what they’d done,

Just like four strangers never knew they’d become SG-1.
