Memorial Day

Solemn remembrance
of flowers on graves
of a peoples whose service
in all wars and armed forces,
gave to a country strong with
observance of memorial; their lives.
On this decoration day,
a summer BBQ laced with cemeteries
and American flags near headstones
will honor and weep for those
who knew patriotism is yet a sacrifice
of the highest honor.
We will parade for you as we recall
the somber battles and comrades lost or maimed
in defense of our country.
A rebellion, a commemorative fight,
a tribute to the countless fallen and affected men and women
we gather as our freedom reigns.
