The Memorial

A place of remembrance and tears.

Of friend lost.

A place to grieve and to heal.

A place of reflections of the past

in black marble or bronze.

A tribute to the fallen soldier.

A place to say thank you.

For the sacrifice that you gave.

A reflection in time.

A gathering of souls to celebrate and honor.

 To  remember those who served

And gave their all for a nation they loved.

For this we pay homage to a sacred place.

The Memorial.
