Passed out in his arms

Waves carry the brave sailor
Forward towards home

I kept hearing these songs when I wrote this.
I thought I would share.
Young wounded soldier
Nurse tends to his many wounds
Hearts fill up with love

Mom comforts her child
Mending a small tiny cut
Causing lots of tears
+
Two angry brothers
Hatred spewed throughout the years
Now mending their bonds

What is it like?
To lay your body down.
To spill your blood and life.
Upon the Earthly Ground.
A special thank you to all soldiers and veterans on this day. Your bravery is appreciated.

Memorial Day is a United States federal holiday which occurs every year on the final Monday of May.[1] Memorial Day is a day of remembering the men and women who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces.[2] Formerly known as Decoration Day, it originated after the American Civil War to commemorate the Union and Confederate soldiers who died in the Civil War. By the 20th century, Memorial Day had been extended to honor all Americans who have died while in the military service[3]. It typically marks the start of the summer vacation season, while Labor Day marks its end.
