I will remind myself of what they did, And keep them dearly cherished in my heart; Their honor never from me shall be hid And I will know they always did their part To save our nation and its people here, To pledge their lives in defense of our ways, To show that freedom always outlives fear, And sacrifice is hallowed all our days. If Liberty means anything to me, I will remember those who kept me free. © John Stuart 2008 Pastor at Erin Presbyterian Church, Knoxville, Tennessee Memorial Day Sonnet

If Liberty means anything to me,
I will remember what my freedom cost,
By those who gave their all to keep me free,
Whose lives were sacrificed, but never lost.
I will remind myself of what they did,
And keep them dearly cherished in my heart;
Their honor never from me shall be hid
And I will know they always did their part
To save our nation and its people here,
To pledge their lives in defense of our ways,
To show that freedom always outlives fear,
And sacrifice is hallowed all our days.
If Liberty means anything to me,
I will remember those who kept me free.

(I love Enya's music, it is so soothing) I have no words to express the debt owed to those soldiers and their familes who sacraficed all to preserve the freedoms that I enjoy every day. My thoughts on Memorial Day also go out to those who are serving or have served and fortunately have come back alive but carry the scars with them. Thank you. God bless them all and God bless America. Beautiful video Wordsmith. (I love Enya’s music, it is so soothing)
