Since today is the day the memorial for the soldiers lost in the terrorist attack I got a very nice foward which included this poem.
I thought you all would like to read it. It also honors the people who have served our country.
"Hero"
For those who fought on distant shore,
Who gave without a word;
Defending us with honor,
So gallantly they served.
For every boy who left his home,
Returning there a man;
And every woman who made a choice,
To make serving part of her plan.
For every fallen soldier,
Who gave all they could give;
To guarantee our liberty,
And the freedom that we live.
Each one who served with honor,
The brave, the tried, the true;
America gives it thanks today,
For we see a hero in you.
