A Memorial Day tribute to our heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice.

A spectacular promise.

A journey of faith, longing,
And triumphant excellence.

Arriving through the Decency
And Almighty Hands of God.

The vitality and construction
Of this once-again valued nation;

The sovereignty and worth
Of The Home of Freedom and Light.

Wartime souls banishing
Those pernicious and vile numbers
Of enemy combatants
And their rambunctious
Disciples of rage,
With superior courage
And stalwart designs;

A day of remembrance
For the greatest heroes of all time,
In the hearts and minds
Of Americans
For their intrepid virtues
And surreal and unfolding grit…

A purview of light and hope

Coming to fruition due to the heroics
And sacrifices
Of our truly experienced
Troops and fighters,
In those prodigious
And horrifying encounters
In distant lands…

For the historic and determined treks
Of this glorious nation…
