Memorial Day

Ternic73

We remember the ultimate sacrifice soldiers made

Memorial wreathes upon their graves

We remember those who fought galantly and brave

American flags at each and every grave

Soldiers fought for our freedom

So many gave their lives

Brothers,sons, husbands and wives

Memorial day a time to remember and never forget

Those who sacrificed we owe a great debt

Giving their lives so we can be free

The ultimate sacrifice a soldier gave

Wreath of rememberance upon their grave

We honor those who fought in wars today and years past

We hope today those wars don't last
