A TRIBUTE TO OUR VETERANS by Gene Minix They left for the battlefields Most so very, very young. They had lived so little, So many songs yet to be sung. They hid the warm tears From their eyes that wanted to flow That loved ones might not see How their hearts were breaking so. And they dawned a new strength Both of flesh and of mind. And with stamina they marched forward, O, this daring brave kind. They marched off to war. They gave so much for you and me. Fighting against the devilish foe That we might remain free. My, they have given so much That our flag of freedom would always soar. May we honor these brave men and women And remember them for ever more. It is good that we take this day To remember and honor these so brave. Tell those who are living, "THANK YOU" and lay a wreath upon the graves Of those who came not back, But died fighting the foe. Let us never forget what they did Whatever we do and wherever we go. © Copyright 2002, by Gene Minix. All rights reserved. |
