Memorial Day - Minute Poem
Memorial Day

Fallen soldiers honored today.
Flags wave, we pray.
Mostly just boys
but guns aren't toys,
they're our heroes, our warriors
in someone's wars.
We think we're right,
they're sent to fight
in foreign lands, dear sacrifice.
They pay our price,
and young sons die.
I must ask, why?
                   ~~Judi Van Gorder
