Remember them

Remember Them

D-Day veterans, oh so few.
Respecting their dead,
They gave all for you.
Brave men went forging blindly ahead.
Into a salvo of bullets, falling down dead.
Can you possibly imagine
That feeling as they strode?
Onto a beach in fighting mode?
Instantly dying.
Or worse laying hurt.
Thinking of home as they lay in the dirt!
Crying for their mother
As pain seared through.
Bullets hitting metal.
Can you imagine, can you?
No!
Bravery exalted.
Those men gave their all.
Bow your heads in a prayer
D-Day veterans stand tall!
Our freedom was fought for
By so many a brave man.
Thank You doesn’t cut it
But say it if you can!
Never forget.
Say a prayer.
Be thankful for those...so brave men there.
