Stories & Poems About War


 

Remembering Our Warriors

 

 

Memorial Day” is meant for them…

So let us not forget…

To spend some time to honor those…

Who died with no regret!

 

We’ve all been touched by wars…

That’s why we have this day…

It’s to honor fallen heroes…

And thank them our own way.

 

And as we search to find…

Those certain ones we love…

We often feel a gentle peace…

That comes from up above.

 

And when our journey stops…

We bow and say a prayer…

And stare down at the cross or stone…

And read the name with care.

 

 We spend some time in silence…

And our eyes cloud with a tear…

As we hold on to the moment…

Like we do each passing year.

And as we say, “good-bye!”…

Before we walk away…

We promise to remember them…

Beyond this special day!
