I cannot visit your graves this year; Your lives which ended so I could stay here. A price that was paid like Christ on the cross, Most never realizing how much it has cost. But, in my heart you’ll always stay kindred Spirits, souls find their way. My tears, unashamed, freely fall may we remember […]
