A Great Place To Visit

'That We May Not Forget'
By Linda Montgomery
They came home tired and wounded;
Some didn't come at all;
So many of them gave their lives
So their homeland wouldn't fall.
They came from every walk of life
To defend their native land;
They left their homes to fight a war
They didn't understand.
A blacksmith left a burning forge,
His tongs still in his hand;
A young boy saddled up his horse
And rode away a man.
A farmer left a field unplowed,
His crops to wilt and die;
He held his loved ones close to him
And said his last goodbye.
From the darkness of the trenches,
As they fought back desperate cries,
They still could see their families
With teardrops in their eyes.
In far away and lonely lands
They did the best they could;
And the freedom we enjoy today
Was paid for with their blood.
Our gratitude for sacrifice
Will never dim or fade;
And the debt to those who died for us
Can never be repaid.
As we pause now to remember
Just how much each one gave,
Honor, Love, and Freedom
Still echo from the grave.
Let each of us, as we reminisce,
Whisper a silent prayer
To Thank God for America
And the freedom that we share.
