In The Arms of the Angels

WE REMEMBER

We pay tribute and honor the fallen

...

Memorial Day Week-end

...

Here the rains were forcast at 40% and as I sit with coffee,

with plans to join dear friends for a day on the water, and memories of remembering along with times of laughter and relaxing and a fired up grill,

I sit and watch as the rains

fall with fierceness now!

That 40% giving us all

as a strong reminder

that some gave

ALL

for those freedoms we have

to sit and enjoy the rains

while others walk the

Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

24/7 365 days a year

in sun/rain/sleet/snow

honoring, protecting.

While others are sleeping on sand with a M-47 in their hands

and others are fighting with underwear changed every 4 months and havent had a steak in a year

protecting our freedoms

while we are firing up the grill

or making other plans

today

after waking and taking a shower

and fussing over the weather,

and somewhere someone is playing

TAPS

protected by their brothers in Uniform by heavy weaponry on each side as they mourn losses on a hillside in hell on earth.

Oh the rains are really coming down now.

Thank you To all who serve

and those who gave all

for our freedoms.

{perhaps if it is raining where you are today, you can see it as a hiccup} or a gift!
