Memorial Day

I am an American
To the innermost core of me.
And today I remember
The men and women who keep us free.

They served our country well,
Usually with great sacrifice,
Leaving behind family and friends,
While many gave their lives.

To these men and women I say thank you
For being willing to serve our country.
A country where I do what I choose,
A country where I am free to be me.

While I am waiting to go to heaven,
Until that day I no longer must roam,
I will do my best to follow Jesus
And call America home.
