Happy Memorial Day

by teresa

Through the feel of war they brave this day

How proud they stand, their unselfish way

Our soldiers bear what we cannot see

They assure our right to live life free

Each trained will face an unknown fate

Our support they need, don’t hesitate

Just imagine how this land would be

Without their courage - catastrophe

All the liberties we have grown to know

Would not exist, this life would go

Find a thankfulness within your mind

Speak gratitude for our bravest kind

Have the willingness to show you care

For fallen heroes, hold back no tear

Reach out to God with his guiding light

For our troops do pray, both day and night

America raise your flags to wave

For we truly are 'home of the brave'
