What is Memorial Day?

� 1998 by Jim Hutchinson Mays Landing,NJ

Is Memorial Day a Hardware sale?

A good price on a garden pail ?

Did my buddies give their limbs, lives, and sinew For chicken, stakes, and barbecue ?

For The Coward to place a wreath on sacred ground, While my comrades are crippled and wheelchair bound Did my buddies die in that living green hell.

For endless rows of cars to sell ?

For drunks, accidents and long traffic jams, Did my buddies perish in Vietnam .

So while young men drool over the Memorial Day Queen I ll remember my buddies

-The Living,The Dead and The In - Between.

Dennis, Thanks for posting.

That poem is a great wake up call to all those that think this holiday is just another day off and reason to BBQ and drink!! Ouch

Stop and thank a vet, say a prayer for the fallen, have an actual moment of silence today and REMEMBER!!
