This Memorial Day…


 


We salute every soldier who’s


 served this great nation.


And offer a heart of thanks


 and appreciation!


 


We salute each member


of our armed forces.


And are thankful for their


 efforts and resources!


 


We salute the many who


protect our borders too.


We’d be in trouble… 


If not for people like YOU!


 


We salute every son and


daughter lost in a war.


YOU are what serving this


 country is meant for!


 


We salute the officers who’ve


guided our women and men.


Our prayers are with you! 


And our love from within!


 


We salute our veterans! 


Wherever they may be!


Those who served on


 land, air and sea!


 


Offering prayer to the


 Lord is our belief…


That he will guide our


 Commander-in-Chief!


 


As we observe Memorial Day


 this year…


Let’s offer our soldiers


 love, hope and cheer…


 


May God bless them in


 all they endeavor


And his peace be with them


 today and forever!!

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
