A Thank you to our fallen soldiers past
Remembering you with love, enmasse.
A time to put our politics aside for you,
Who fought for us with a belief so true.
So thank you from the bottom of my heart,
One and all, You've done your part.
It is a day to show our gratitude and love,
And hope you see us from the heavens above.
A country stops and pays tribute to you,
Our flags raised high in remembrance too.
We know what you sacrificed to protect,
Your memories will never be treated with neglect.
Look down upon a nation looking up into the sky,
Tis our day to thank you and never wonder why,
God made those like you willing to protect us here,
So we can walk and talk freely completely without fear.
The one last thing we ask of you who gave so much,
Is to look out for our soldiers with your touch.
Protect them as a Guardian angel would,
Understand and love them as only you could.
We bow our heads and pray for you,
Our country's heroes, red, white and blue.
The Nation stops and stands still today,
To honor you on Memorial Day.
