Le Voyage Magnifique

Remember

Remember the brave
and all that they gave
to stop the tidal wave
of brutal tyranny.

Remember the cost
in precious lives lost
when opposing paths crossed
on beach at Normandy.

Remember the gore
when so many more
never saw the war
past that bloody shore--
a day of agony.

Remember their names
etched on that wall.
They answered the call
and gave their all
so we can be free.
