Happy Veteran's Day

For some it was just yesterday,
for some it's been faded years.
But their sacrifice is not forgotten
as Veteran's Day appears.
 
Thank you for giving your time
a little piece of your life,
to keep us safe and happy
and keep our lives free from strife.
 
I know I'll never know
the extent of what you endured.
The many sleepless nights,
the heart that's never cured.
 
Just know that I appreciate
the things that you have done.
Freedom does not come free;
the price has to be won.
 
~~ This poem has a special dedication to my Grandpa Jack and my husband. Both wonderful guys who served our country and who I love dearly! ~~
