'D-Day Remembered' Poem by Linda Winchell

I was born in the year, ”1948”
After world war two, just a few years too late.
I didn't know anyone who served in that war, you see
That wasn't something at the time
That seemed too important to me.

But as I've grown older
And a bit wiser too.
I'll now stand at attention proudly
For the Red, White and Blue.

And now show more respect
For all who fought and had died
In a foreign land, that I might survive.

I remember them more
Than just on those designated days.
And see what they all fought for
Those many proud and the brave.
