| A Reminder Written by: Mel C. Scott In the silence hear The whisper of the wind Hear as it calls As it beacons from within Feel as the breeze blows So gentle and freely through Listen to the sounds Of the soldiers fighting true Know that the very soil That you now walk upon Became enriched By blood of soldiers dead and gone Remember forever blood was spilt On this land of the brave and free Remember that even now They still die for you and me See that flag that flies so boldly there As it dances in the wind The red for blood of the valor and hardiness Of the soldiers whom fought to win The white for the purity and it is they that protect thee innocence For those who know not fear The blue stands for vigilance, perseverance, and justice Which remains so very clear.. Know that as we enjoy All this freedom that we have It was the blood of a soldier Who has allowed you what you have As you lay in your bed As you begin to drift asleep Somewhere out there Is a soldier�s family who does weep� So never once forget Or Take for granted that you are free As you walk upon this soil It is they who gave for thee So stand by them and be certain They will fight as bravely as they can All for the freedom that We enjoy In the United States our homeland� |
