MEMORIAL DAY TRIBUTE TO A SOLDIER

MEMORIAL DAY TRIBUTE

On Memorial Day we honor the fallen hero’s

Our country’s most brave, fearless, and courageous too

Our hero’s who died for our country’s freedom

Just people like me and you

A loved one in battle hoping to come home soon

A dad, a mom, someone’s daughter or son

The ones who paid the ultimate price

For they didn’t come home when the battle was done.

So today we place flowers on rows of stone

And give honor to those that are lost

We publicly display our private grief

As we absorb the full measure of freedoms cost.

Lost is the innocence of yesterday

As war penetrates this young generation

Pray that our country remembers our constitution

For that is what founded this great nation.

America the beautiful

My country so many heroes have died for

I am so proud to be called an American

Because of their sacrifice freedom shall ring forevermore!
