Boys, Men, Soldiers, Heroes

A day of rememberence a day of joy but sadness a day of thank you's a day of memories Boys who learned to grow up quickly boys who were whisked away from all they knew boys who put on their uniform boys who sharred one thing in common, pride Men who fought for our country men who left families behind men who took their final journey men who fought for what is now Soldiers who suffered in the trenches Soldiers who dodged the bullets Soldiers who had no salvation Soldiers who stood proud for us Heroes who died out on the front line Heroes who never lived to see this day Heroes who just made it to D-day Heroes who were our boys,men and soldiers A day of celebration along with grief a day of sorrow along with pride a day of realistaion of just how many never returned from a cold war boy's,men and soldiers
