Remembered still those souls who tried
To save the world, but many died.
A moment stolen for a tear,
As we recall those unlived years.
The camaraderie that flew those souls back home to those they knew,
And loved them dear and held them close
But for our sakes released to foes
The silence that they leave behind
Is space to calm the troubled minds of those they loved
And can’t rewind.
Again this day we give our thanks
For those returned from serving ranks
And them ‘as gave it all away
Forever in our minds will stay.

Very nice Ronnie.
We will remember them
Prefectdt
In the states, we have Memorial Day and Veterans Day. The former is to remember those whose boots did not return home. The latter is for all veterans. I think this post would be more appropriate for Memorial Day, if you have such in the UK.
Roz - It was new to me. Thanks.
SG - Good to see you. Thanks.
Prefectdt - Always. Thanks.
Bogey - In my opionion, I think it's appropriate at any time during this week as we remember those who didn't return. We have Remebrance Sunday,which is this weekend. Thanks.
Love,
Ronnie
