God bless our men and women in uniform.

' S t a r s  and  S t r i p e s'

To those who've served,
who've done what they had
to, write or wrong,

thank you.  Ev'ry
time I look at the
red, white & blue,

I remember
each of you when I
see its broad stripes.

To those who've died,
so I could be free -
you are its stars.

So pardon the
tears, the emotion.
I am grateful.

(c) 2007, Karla Dorman.  (8/10)

Karla,

Just got the desert dust off my boots now---at home on R&R for the week then return.
On leaving, I gave a thumbs up to one of our good guys who
gave the biggest and proudest smile.
Thumbs up to you and everyone.

A tribute for Heros
For they too wish not to be there
But be there they must
Peace be with you Karla

Very well stated and your patriotism is to be admired and imitated by all who value freedom and are appreciative of those who serve so they can enjoy that benefit.

I agree my friend, if it were not for those who have so bravely gone to war for the sake of our freedom....where would we be? Or even...would we be? Enjoyed a powerful and well written indeed!
