They had a poetry contest at work for Memorial Day, I didn't win but that is okay since I can share it here.
Remember them on Memorial Day
They answered Uncle Sam’s call
Remember them on Memorial Day
For you and I they gave their all
So we can enjoy the American Way
Enjoy the cookouts with your family
Remember them on Memorial Day
Enjoy the swimming pool and the apple pie
Raise a toast for the ones not here today
Enjoy the company of loved ones
Remember them on Memorial Day
That is what they missed all alone
Place a flower where they lay
