| Memorial Day 2024 |
Where echoes of sacrifice and courage, through time, do not falter.
In solemn silence, we gather, hearts heavy with memory's weight,
For those who donned the mantle of service and met a hero's fate.
They marched into the vast unknown, with steadfast hearts so bold,
Leaving behind their loved ones' embrace, stories left untold.
In fields afar, where poppies bloom and freedom's cost is sown,
Their valor rests in earthen tombs, their spirits have flown.
We speak their names, a sacred roll, a testament to the brave,
Who crossed into the shadow's veil, our cherished land to save.
Their laughter, dreams, and gentle touch, forever lost to war,
Yet in our minds, they live and breathe, now and evermore.
On Memorial Day, we honor them, not just with flags unfurled,
But with a promise to remember, as long as there's a world.
For in their leaving, they gave us gifts of peace and liberty,
A charge to keep, to hold dear, for all of eternity.
So let us pause and cast our gaze upon the azure sky,
And whisper thanks to those who had the courage to die.
May we live lives worthy of the price they had to pay,
And keep their legacy alive, this and every Memorial Day.
