Graphic by Billie
Remember to Salute
A thousand flags are held by men,
A thousand stories of back when,
The warriors clashed neath battered rag.
On closer view, it was their flag.
The flag stood always at the front,
When battle came, it took the brunt,
And though the bullets rent and tore,
The flag would never shirk from war.
Every flag, and every color,
Holds a meaning, all of valor.
Men who stand in salutation,
Are the fabric of our nation.
And the flag that fills their eyes,
Along with tears that might arise,
Show the heart that forges on,
Til the victory has been won.
Stand and honor passing glory,
Remember well the honored story.
The flag deserves salute and then,
Remember to salute the men.
