“Memorial Day 2011”
BLOG BURST:
"This week is different and we need to pause and remember
Time moves so fast, and many of us are no longer together
There were and are those that risked and gave their all
As our country needed them they answered the call
We have our freedom, way of life because of their sacrifice
Thank you God for them; they played such a part in our life
This week is different and we need to pause and remember
Time moves so fast, and many of us are no longer together
Families broken, apart, going their own separate ways
Still the love we’ll always have for them guides us everyday
Spouses of our youth, loves of our life, never to be replaced
Many gone their own way, others resting in a special place
This week is different and we need to pause and remember
Time moves so fast, and many of us are no longer together
Children born and raised, with us, or moved on somewhere
Sons and daughters, curses of life to meet and still care
Relationships built and growing; both separate and apart
Always be connected as you gave to them your heart
This week is different and we need to pause and remember
Time moves so fast, and many of us are no longer together
Mother, father, sister, brother how they influenced our living
Some are with us some are not, but they were always giving
Struggles and time influences all the choices, what can we say
Leads us to reflect on how we’d do things differently today
This week is different and we need to pause and remember
Time moves so fast, and many of us are no longer together
How you doing; what’s going on, how’s things for you; we say
Do we really hear what we’re saying and how precious is today
Not enough said, no forgiveness; just too much caused by pain
Time moves on and soon we’ll join the dust as life truly wanes
This week is different and we need to pause and remember
Time moves so fast, and many of us are no longer together
Connect with those you loved, care for, forgive, and love
Contemplate where you’ve come from and God above!”
“Pause”, “Remember”, and “Act”, you won’t regret it. Have a great week!”
