Veterans Tribute
Veterans are those who stand up and fight.
Because they know this is right.
They cross the bright and shining sea.
To give us our chance to live and be free.
They leave their families and closest kin.
For God and country our lands they defend.
It's time we pay tribute for all they have done.
They are ALL Heroes - each and everyone.
They did not do this for glory or even fame.
They did not set out to be Heroes - but that is their name.
To those many people that are red, white, and blue.
We stand up proudly today and say "THANK YOU!!!"
Footnote: When I was working in AZ in Security at a Veterans Concert/Benefit I came up with this poem on 11-11-12. So you may also find this poem on their website. In response to the Riverside Resort and Casino Poem the casino is in Laughlin NV near the bridge that goes to Bullhead City AZ.
