Spit shine
those boots,
getting ready for Veteran's Day parade
with all its pomp and circumstance:
left right,
left right,
down Main.

Band plays
"Anchors Aweigh"
to stir patriotic spirit in crowd
and honor vets' dedication and courage
in Vietnam,
in Afghanistan,
in Iraq.

We thank
them for
the sacrifices they make for us:
their time, their energy, their fate.
People cheer,
flags wave,
children salute.


Notes on the Trinet form of poetry
