Jon M. Nelson has earned the moniker of ‘Soldier Poet’ by writing of his military experiences. As a combat veteran, he has seen the horrors of war first hand, and written tales about the battlefield. He has earned several awards for some of his poems and his second of book of poetry, Reflections of Life, has earned a few book awards as well. He uses his writing to honor members of the military, veterans and their families. Even though he has written many poems to honor his brothers and sisters in arms, he has written so much more than that. Whether it's a love poem for his wife, a spiritual salute to God, a praise to children and family, or even an inspiring tale to uplift humanity, Jon's poetry touches on so many subjects that can be read and shared by so many audiences, even if they've never been a fan of poetry. Jon hopes that his writing will in some way make an impact on the world, and make it a better place, even if it can just change or inspire one person.
