Great Photo Essay. I wrote this yesterday. Hope you won't mind if I post it.

"Freedom"

Freedom isn’t free you know,
It isn’t even cheap.
Many paid the highest price,
So freedom, we could keep.
Soldiers fought and soldiers died,
In many foreign lands.
In forest deep and thick with snow,
And even desert sands.
We fought at sea and in the air,
The battle rages still.
We must back our troops today,
And show we have the will.
To stay the course until it’s done,
And then again we’ll see.
That freedom still belongs to us,
But never is it free.

Terrific poem! I'm printing it and posting at my desk. I included your name which will confuse non-freepers.
