VETERANS’ DAY OBSERVED
Pepperhawk
- Veterans' Day Means Honoring Those Who Keep the Flame of Liberty and Freedom
We Give Our Thanks To All Our Brave Men and Women for Their Sacrifices For Us.
Americans remember
each man who freely served,
honor them on Veteran’s Day,
make sure their day’s observed.
For no one knows the aftermath
of brave men sent to war,
the pain of losing arms and legs,
or buddies sent before.
World war vets still suffer,
though many years have passed,
from radiation in Japan,
who knew effects would last ?
They walked the bombed-out craters
and tread the barren land,
observing A-Bomb targets
here America took a stand.
We must remember them too,
the price that they have paid,
the health of unborn children,
and sacrifices made.
Wounds aren’t always showing
on the surface of brave men,
some are left in nightmares,
or just beneath the skin.
Some have turned their backs
on two hundred thousand, more,
who fought battles with the enemy
to keep them from our shore.
How could this wealthy nation
forget these mighty men,
for even in their suffering,
they’d do it all again.
Let’s at least pay homage
to those who linger still,
the men of sixty years ago
who fought with iron will…
And for the ones who’ve passed on,
to paradise, I’m sure,
God, grant them precious peace and love,
and finally a cure.
GOD BLESS AMERICA AND ALL OF OUR MILITARY. AND FOR THOSE WHO HAVE FALLEN MAY THEY REST IN PEACE IN GOD'S ARMS. AMEN
