There&...Thank you for reprinting this poem, Anne! <br />There's never a Memorial Day that <br />I don't remember my dad ... usually first in line to purchase poppies for himself, mother and me. In fact, I was just "telling" Carol (Buttercup) that if he and my mom were still alive, they'd be so disgusted by today's ambivalence and lack of honor. <br /><br />Praying for Lee Rigby's family and friends ... and all who hold Freedom dear.<br />Mevely317https://www.blogger.com/profile/14786988262452989091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965293212962953575.post-55339798903783075472013-05-26T23:35:43.244-06:002013-05-26T23:35:43.244-06:00I love this poem, it is one of my favorites.

It breaks more for a world full of such evil and souls that feel that what they do is perfectly ok with their God. May we all be protected from them that wish us harm because we believe in the Jesus.
