   AT ARLINGTON
At Arlington,this special day
The morning sun lights every cross
Beneath each cross a hero lay
'Tis heavens gain, though countries loss

Once full of life and young men's dreams
They listened to their countries call
And faced the battles mournful screams
Then rallied forth and gave their all

The least we do, now, humbly pray,
And hold them in our memories
Those fighting still, those gone away
At Arlington we honor these

So let the trumpets sound aloud
As we salute with flag and sword
And though with tears, we stand here proud
In peace they stand before their Lord.
                              
                               for Memorial Day

Pansies for the Soul

Little vases
in a row
holding tiny pansy
faces a glow
Columbine tall and slender grow
holding the back line in toe...
In my garden do these grow
pansy and columbine for the soul...
