Remember Me
When the parades have all gone by,
And quiet settles 'neath the sky,
Remember me, not just today
But every day in your own way.
On Memorial Day, recall,
The price of peace is dear for all.
Each martyr's step, each veteran's strife,
Carved paths of hope through their sacrificed life.
In fields where poppies dare to creep,
Over stones where the valiant sleep,
Their echoes linger in the breeze,
Guardians of peace across the seas.
So when you feel safe, free, and blessed,
Remember me, among the rest,
For through our trials, what we defend,
Is a safer world, a hopeful end.
