To all those who served.

Veteran’s Day – 2015
This day
all flags
shed…
bloodied shadows
upon
sacred soil
dotted
with stilled crosses.
This day
parades
weary soldiers
smile
at the few who line the streets
march
to familiar cadence
salute
flag’s half mast history
weep
as Taps resounds
across
each generation’s tears.
This day
Peace
will solemnly descend
upon those
who kept her safe.
