Isn't this one fun?

 

I love the bright colors.

Be Grateful

 

 

 

be grateful

 

 

Two such simple yet powerful words.

 

 

I have so much for which I am grateful.

 

 

This lovely towel was made by the

 

super-talented Ann at On Sutton Place.

 

 

I've had this towel rack for close to 40 years,

 

and this is my pantry door.

 

Such a perfect place to have a reminder to

 

be grateful.

 

It brings a smile to all.

 

 

Visit Ann's etsy shop at

 

Sutton's Place Designs.

 

 

You're going to love all of

 

Ann's beautiful designs & fine workmanship.

Memorial Day 2013

 

 

 

 

One Soldier's Life

R. Widing

 

 

On a cold and rainy evening
Near an old and sunken grave
Sounds a trumpet’s simple, solemn tune
Respects paid to the brave

Mere interest on a huge debt owed
For the biggest sacrifice
Through terror, sorrow, untold pain
Fire, smoke and ice

This soldier, many never knew
But he was someone’s son
And gave the promise of his youth
Now he’s the greater one

His battleground was far from home
He fought to keep us free
While many men spend lives on self
This man gave his for me

So many never made it back
They rest on foreign soil
Such gallant men I’ll not forget
For they define what’s loyal

Graves very often mention
The place where brave men fell
For others, we may never know
As only God can tell

Location matters little
For lives they nobly gave
Near forest, field or desert
In air, or watery grave

This young man left his loved ones home
War pulled those lives apart
And left his fractured family
With but a broken heart

One soldier’s life speaks loud for those
Now silent through the years
This brave man’s sacred resting place
I wash with grateful tears

 

 

Sweet Bye And Bye
