We honor those, who fought the fight

On the battle fields, both day and night

Who fought for our liberties and our rights

But, never returned, to a future, bright

On Memorial Day, we honor our dead

Who gave their lives, where’er they tread

Where bravery stood, and never fled

So we could tuck, safely, into our beds

On this Memorial Day, and every day, remember those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for us, so that we may continue to live in freedom. May God always hold them in His loving hands.   ❤

I wrote this in 2014 and have shared it the past couple of years. It has now become my traditional Mother’s Day Poem.  For all the beautiful women who bring joy and love to child’s heart, have a blessed and beautiful day!!  ❤

A mother’s love is true

For it beautifully blossoms

Like a rose, softly unfolding,

Enveloping,

Opening the heart,

Nurturing the soul

The Christmas holiday is done, the caroling and cheer

Santa’s sleigh, has gone away, along with his reindeer

And soon December follows, making way for resolutions

That no one really keeps, it’s against their constitution

An eruption of presents

In red, and blue, and green

Holds nary an empty space

Amid this holiday scene

Packages piled high, waiting

Under the Christmas tree

The warmth of this season

Is blending perfectly

With silver bows and ribbons

And boxes on the floor

But, when we are together

The meaning’s so much more

 

December Writing Prompt – An eruption of presents was all that could be seen – Day 25/31
