Memorial Day 2011

 

They gathered all around the land

To honor those who've died

Beneath the flag and in defense

Of a nation and its pride

 

Every year the number grows

On fhose we venerate

Every year's another war

More dead it generates.

 

Onward march the veterans

Who made it through a way

Honoring combatants lost

Anticipating more.
