Remember when you wake up each morn There are those who'll never see the dawn The brave who gave their lives so that we Could live out our today's peacefully . . . No standing out in the pouring rain No seeing the sun come shine again No rainbows painted upon the sky No stars gleaming bright when night is nigh. No wedding bells chime, no wedding rings No happy family gatherings No tiny hands to cherish and hold No nursery rhymes or stories told. No arms to give a tender embrace No kisses upon a special face No whispering of sweetest nothings No excited homecoming buzzing. Remember families that have grieved For loved one's who were sadly deceased Tragically hurt or traumatised Precious sons, daughters, husbands and wives. Remember! 11th November 2020
