For All Who Fought

by dragonpoet

Honor and thanks are due our vets:
With medals we decorate chests,
Poppies and white crosses on graves,
Salutes are given as they pass.

With medals we decorate chests
To celebrate their bravery
And selflessness to put their
Lives on the line for our freedom.

Poppies and white crosses on graves
Of those who gave their all not to
Return depict the blood they spilled
And purity of their service.

Salutes are given as they pass
To show our pride in their duty
To our country and our ideals
So we retain our way of life
