Memorial Day

 Covered in

The red

White and blue

Draped with 

The stars

And stripes

At Dover

We reunite

For the 

Last time

For your sacrifice 

Reminds me

I won’t 

See your face

Again 

In the land

Of the Living 

But your heart

Is ever mine 

To treasure

  8. Regine, this is a beautiful tribute. When the kids and I went to England in 2019, we took a van trip out to Dover. I will post a picture on my blog of us...we toured a tunnel under the Dover Castle where the wounded were brought across the English Channel. It was and I think bad a very solemn time of remembering what the men and women in uniform suffered but also how traumatic it was for those who sought to relieve their pain. Love you girl

  9. I'm sorry you lost a loved one. I have had many loved ones who served, but they all came home. Thank you, God.
