Memorial Day 2015

In Honor of Memorial Day 2015 I would like to say thank you to all who have served our country and all who have left a mark on my life.  I am incredibly grateful.  I wrote this quick poem for a Veteran attending the National Honor Flight and also thought of my grandfather and other friends and family who have graciously served.

God Bless The Veteran

For every day you spent away

On foreign ground you had to pray

For the ultimate price you had to pay

God bless the Veteran

For the days so long no sleep did come

And every day you carried a gun

For your service that is never done

God bless the Veteran

For the dreams that keep you up at night

And every day you had to fight

when others do not treat you right

God bless the Veteran

For every night I get to pray

And all the words I get to say

For all the games I get to play

God bless the Veteran

For every night I’m safe at home

And every night I’m not alone

For every happiness I have known

God bless the Veteran

For the flag flying strong and true

For our colors red white and blue

For every little thing you do

God bless the Veteran
