A Memorial Day Salute

Never let us forget
that Freedom isn't Free



With our picnics and parades
and three day weekend.

Stop for a moment
and say a prayer

for the Fathers and Sons,
Brothers,
Mothers and Daughters,
Sisters,
Husbands and Wives
who gave their lives so proudly.

And those who served bravely,
And continue to today.
And remember those they have left behind,
for their loss is the cost
of the Freedom we hold dear.

To our veterans, our heros,
brave defenders of our homeland,
a grand salute.

For you are what makes me
Proud to be an American

Thank you.
