On this weekend
we remember those that served
fighting for an ideal
having the nerve
Coming in many forms
bravery to face the battle
beliefs that all have liberty
and are not mere chattel
Through words of love
spoken of lives lost too soon
they will not be forgotten
bugles play at noon
Love never dies
they have given us this life
sounds of laughter
peace and not strife
There are few
who proudly take our place
to defend a great land
wrapped in God’s grace
We are grateful for their service
for defending this great land
giving hugs to their spirits
reverently shaking their hands
Happy Memorial Day
to those whom are gone
your sacrifice is not forgotten
you will never walk alone

Salute Commander Pierce. Glad to see you back. š
Thank you. I am hoping that all is well with you. Praying for much success for you. My grief is easing with more good days than bad. Hopefully will be writing more. Please take care and have a wonderful day!
Right back at you, my dear. Please, stay safe. All of this is part of life. It’s not perfect, but nothing ever is. You just keep going and look forward for the new things in life. Wish you lots of Sun and tiny problems so you don’t get bored.
