My parents were laid to rest at Arlington Cemetary and this poem is a reflection of my feelings that day, as well as God's light shining down on us that day, as shown in the photo.

Within His Light
 
On this day
I felt his love
I saw his light
As we gathered
Paying our respect
For a soldier
For an angel
God was with us.
 
I knew
Because of faith
They were home
In God’s embrace
Soldiers stood
Within his light
At attention
For my father
For my mother.
 
Words of love
Hope and Faith
Spoken that day
On March the Eight
Filling our heart
Mind and Eyes
With his love
And within his light.
 
On this day
Within his light
Prayers of many
Thanking God
For gifts of plenty
Wonderful parents
Kind, so loving
Will be missed
And never forgotten.
