I've re-re-recycled a Memorial Day post from years prior. Apologies, but sometimes I said it better then than I could now. Oftentimes, I don't know what to say about something so overwhelmingly tragic as war.
And how can we possibly begin to adequately thank and pay tribute to our military? We can't.
I did give it thought as a child, though.
My favorite line in the above poem is: "I think more forests should be built."

May it be a meaningful, peaceful and safe Memorial Day.
With gratitude and blessings to all who have served and will serve our country, and to their loved ones, for all time.
