P lease consider,
A s you enjoy your leisure
U nderstanding for the freedoms we know,
S ome fought and died,
E nding their life, denied

T he things we assume as tho'
O ur Heritage we deserve,

R ights from which we ne'er swerve
E ndowed with Life and Liberty,
F riend, consider the cost,
L ike our debt to the lost
E nabling us to be Free--
C an we not Honor Them more
T hese Heroes of our Treasured Shores?????

David,
Let us not forget the sacrifices made on our behalf. Your poem is a nobel reminder that we owe so much to to so many. Good poem and form. Dennis

David; A beautifully written and timely message...how can we possibly ever forget the human sacrificial price that was paid for our freedom, that we dare not take for granted? God Bless America!!!! Ellie
