The
softness of their eyes
The
way they loved us so
Tears
they shed before us
When
time for them to go
How
proud to wear their hearts
Upon
their chest and sleeves
Serving
God and country
So
many souls received
Fought
with pride and honor
So
fearless through the night
Stars
above were twinkling
They
fought with all their might
So
proud of what they gave us
Sweet
victory for all
Battled
with great glory
So
many to recall
Brave
and fearless glory
What
better lesson sought
Power
to one nation
All
our soldiers brought
Never
will forget them
Those
we left behind
Names
forever honored
Each
gift of life that binds
Praise
to all our soldiers
Who
fought for liberty
With
loyal brave emotions
So
we can all be free
Step
up upon the mountain
Wave
up to the sky
Closer
to the Heavens
Our
soldiers battle cry
Freedom
now forever
With
love this gift we gave
We
salute you with such honor
America
the brave
Wreath
now placed in honor
For
all the world to see
No
greater gift was given
Than
spirit of the free.

~AFTERGLOW~
~AUTHOR
UNKNOWN~
I'd
like the memory of me to be a happy one.
I'd
like to leave an afterglow of smiles
when
the day is done.
I'd
like to leave an echo...
whispering
softly down the ways.
Of
happy times and laughing times
and
bright and sunny days.
I'd
like the tears of those who grieve,
to
dry before the sun.
Of
happy memories that I leave behind when day is done.
"A
LIGHT FROM OUR HOUSEHOLD"
~Author
Unknown~
A
light from our household is gone,
A
voice we love is stilled
A
place is vacant in our home,
Which
never can be filled.
We
have to mourn the loss of one
We
did our best to save.
Beloved
on earth, regretted still,
Remembered
in the grave.
'Twas
hard to part with one so dear,
We
little thought the time was near
Farewell,
dear one, your life is past,
Our
love for you till the end will last.
"MY
HEART WILL GO ON"
~Celine
Dion~
Every
night in my dreams, I see you, I feel you.
That
is how my heart goes on.
Far
across the distance and spaces between us,
You
have come to show you go on.
Near,
far, wherever you are,
I
believe that the heart does goes on.
Once
more, you open the door
And
you're here in my heart.
And
my heart will go on and on.
Love
can touch us one time and last for a lifetime,
And
never let go until we're gone.
Love
was when I loved you, one true time I hold to.
In
my life we'll always go on.
Near,
far, wherever you are,
I
believe that the heart does go on.
Once
more, you opened the door
And
you're here in my heart.
And
my heart will go on and on.
You're
here, there's nothing I fear,
And
I know that my heart will go on.
We'll
stay forever this way,
You
are safe in my heart,
And
my heart will go on.
