Remember the Fallen

Remember The Fallen
Poem by Nick Brodeur


As you stand here today, 
before the red, white, and blue,
we remember the ones, 
who gave freedom to you.

We remember the fallen, 
for they paid a great price,
not through their proud lives, 
through their great sacrifice.

As you stand here today, 
we remember their lives,
we remember their children, 
we remember their wives.

For it's not just these names, 
that are carved out of stone,
but the ones with the pieces, 
left to pick up back home.

As you stand here today, 
may we never forget,
all the soldiers back home, 
that still live with regrets.

May they always remember, 
we are here everyday,
we understand their troubles, 
grab our hands lead the way

As we stand here today, 
may we pray to the lord,
to bring justice to evil, 
bring an end to these wars.

Pray we gain understanding, 
though not always agree,
we are just one small planet, 
may we all find some peace.

Please feel free to use this poem in any means necessary to promote the spirit of which it was written. The healing of those effected by war! By my belief... that should be everyone. Pray for our nations healing. Pray for truth & justice. Pray for our soldiers.
