Lest We Forget

Now and forever

from this day forward

and all that have passed

and all that remain

We shall appreciate them

Every minute 

of every day

Until our final moment

until our last breath

we shall honour them. 

On this day, 

our silence will show

the importance of their sacrifice 

that their death was not in vain

we shall remember them

Now and forever

from this day forward

and all that have passed

and all that remain

They will be remembered. 

Lest we forget their sacrifice.

This was perfect in many ways! It speaks truth and it speaks ideals, and it speaks them with a kind of defiance. It's beautiful.

Very poignant poem. We must all continue to live for those who have passed before us and learning not to live in fear of death but accepting it as a necessary part of life. As we enter so too shall we depart.
