White crosses of marble, some are even of wood. They are placed to remember, where once they stood > touching tribute Sharon >> :)

Sharon, those white crosses in Arlington Cemetery make us realize how many lives were sacrificed to preserve our freedom. A wonderful tanka, dear! Love, Carolyn

Sharon, very deep to a point. My great grandfather fought and is buried under one of them white crosses, along with a few of his army buddies. A beautiful country some will fight for and gave their lives for our gift" Love it ( Lin~RA )
