Remember

Today's Poem

Remember

Remember what has gone before
For who knows what may be in store
The world is dangerous, all can be
What's looking after you and me?

If we're enjoying peaceful days
And have the time a glass to raise
From time to time we should give thanks
To those who bravely take their ranks

You know I wish that war was gone
And yet it always does go on
I struggle to see much good therein
But still I hope that good will win

And bravery?  Yes, no doubt it's there
With those who deep down truly care
To be so selfless in this way
Deserves remembering on this day
