Remembrance Day

One thing about my son...he is not a reader/scholar when it comes to english/social studies...and is not very creative so when he comes up with something good...it has to be shared. Shayne wrote this poem a few years ago but I like sharing it each year at this time.

REMEMBRANCE DAY

Young Men
Brave and strong
Leaving home
To protect the people
Strange lands
Enemy lines
Battle fields
Slow moving tanks
Fast flying fighter planes
Bombs bursting
Guns firing
Bullets bite
Hurting, killing, dying
"D Day"
Silence
Peace reigns
Hero's welcome
Parades for all
Medals Awarded
WE REMEMBER
