A Day to Honor Veterans

Today, Veterans Day,  Americans remember.

For all the men and women in all the Armed Forces who left to fight and never came home, we remember.

For all those who came home maimed or missing limbs, eyes or calmness of spirit, we remember.

For those fighting now, to preserve our precious freedom, we remember.

For all the tears shed by mothers and fathers for sons and daughters lost in the fight for freedom, we remember. 

When we see the American flag, rippling through the breeze today, may our hearts fill with pride  and honor as we remember.
