MEMORIAL DAY

Memorial Day to some
is grilled food and having fun.
To those who bravely served
the flag is sadly unfurled.

The colors of Old Glory
represent a price once paid.
Many young men and women
are saluted where they lay.

More than just a picnic
with food fit for a king.
A day of somber counting
is what this day doth bring.
