We Shall Never Forget...

[Ronald A. Nelson Col.USA (Ret)]

We Shall Never Forget

 

Some in their ignorance may never see others out of fear refuse to believe... But all who have heard and seen... rivers running red, fields filed with the dead... These, can not in truth forget... The memories, of those who bled.

Let the bards of time repent... of days spent long... in somber temples... For others, who did till the hardened earth... did break the ground, where they do now... reap. They, can never sleep... never, alone. For the memories of the fallen, do often speak... too, those who have heard... the cry of the ...Valkyrie's... These, have seen the earth open wide... Its depths, to swallow their brothers... burden, whole.

Make no mistake... good times, are remember with heart felt... joy. But bitter days, with long lost... tears, do not die. As quietly we cry, for those who did bleed... the fields of liberty... red... for you and I. God bless them, and know, we shall never forget... We can not... For their voices do echo in our memories... and their names drift upon the wind... In far away places... as they did fall, for those, who would be free. I shall never forget... I can not.

How shall we remember these... our fallen dead... will it be with tears or some recanted tale of wrongful pride?
