We Remember Them
Dear Editor:
To those who answered the call to duty
When their country called upon them,
To join up and serve, our freedom to preserve,
We remember them.
They gladly traveled to foreign lands
Into harm’s way they went;
To deliver a blow, that would vanquish the foe
Of this, they would never relent.
We are a grateful nation
Of this there is no doubt.
We’re thankful they served, our nation preserved,
We remember them.
To those who made it safely
Into the arms of loved ones,
Have nary a fear, for they’d quickly volunteer
Once again, to take up their weapons.
To those who did not make it Who paid the ultimate price,
Our gratitude won’t cease, may they ever rest in peace
We remember them.
Dennis Bridle, Mount Forest
